TePe, the experts in interdental care, teamed up with the Dental Health Spa on Queen’s Road, Brighton to host a Brushing Booth to educate children and their parents about good oral care and to help raise funds for Mouth Cancer Awareness during the Brighton Food Festival which closes tomorrow.
Christina Chatfield, Hygienist and Clinical Director at Dental Health Spa said: “We are excited to be a part of this event and look forward to meeting everybody over the weekend. We are inviting anybody who would like advice and information on the best way to look after their teeth to come down and have a chat with our team of experts and learn all about their teeth.”
Elaine Tilling, TePe’s head of clinical education, added: “Oral care is a very important part of everybody’s daily routine, so we feel this is a fantastic opportunity for us to meet lots of people to demonstrate best practise in helping to keep their teeth and gums, healthy.
“We will be supporting Christina and her team by sharing advice and tips on good oral care as well as showing people how clean their ‘feasting fangs’ are. Our team of dental professionals from Dental Health Spa and the British Dental Health Foundation will be on site to offer advice on how to encourage your children to brush regularly and effectively; providing samples of disclosing tablets which help identify plaque build-up in the mouth as well as sending everybody away with a goodie bag full of tools to help them on their way.”
The Brighton Food Festival coincides with the British Dental Health Foundation’s National Smile Month (May 18 – June 18) and the Brushing Booth will be taking donations to support Mouth Cancer Awareness.
