Dental Health Week (DHW) is the Australian Dental Association’s (ADA) major annual oral health campaign. The campaign focuses on the importance of taking steps to care for your teeth and gums to help you keep your teeth and smile for life. This year they are highlighting gum health. 
​
For optimal dental health we recommend
1. Brush teeth twice a day with fluoride toothpaste.
2. Clean between your teeth daily using floss or interdental brushes.
3. Eat a healthy, balanced diet and limit added sugar intake.
4. Visit the dentist regularly for check-ups and preventive care.
