National Dental Hygiene Month
October is National Dental Hygiene Month
This year, ADHA is partnering with Wm. Wrigley Jr. Company, manufacturer of Orbit gum, to celebrate National Dental Hygiene Month (NDHM).
The partnered theme, “Healthy Habits are Easier than You Think,” focuses on keeping your mouth healthy while leading a busy, active lifestyle.
Prevention is the focal point of this year’s NDHM. ADHA stresses the value of working to increase public awareness about the importance of preventive services in keeping good oral hygiene and to encourage others to develop and continue with a daily oral health routine.
Are your patients too busy to keep up with their oral health?
