Super Smiles is an Oral Health Improvement programme to educate and improve the oral health of children.
The Bosdet Foundation has extended its funding for the Super Smiles full-time Oral Health Educator, whose job includes helping children and their parents or carers understand the importance of good oral hygiene and helping identify food and drinks that can harm teeth. Encouraging nurseries and schools to support daily brushing is a well-evidenced practice to help prevent tooth decay.
Alan Le Pavoux of the Bosdet Foundation commented. ‘We were happy to extend the funding for Super Smiles as the programme has shown constant progression and continues to make a positive impact in educating and improving the oral health of children.’
