Do supervised toothbrushing programs make a long term difference?

The benefits go far beyond childhood.

Habits formed in those early years tend to last a lifetime. 

A child who learns to brush daily is much more likely to become an adult with good oral health. That means fewer fillings, fewer extractions, and fewer lost days at work due to dental pain.

The programme is a real investment in the nation’s health and future.
