That&#8217;s why it&#8217;s important to raise awareness among the youngest people as early as possible. The objective? To limit the risks for the future and to understand the stakes of a bad dental hygiene.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How can we raise awareness?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Through the school setting:<\/strong> from kindergarten and primary school, a large number of schools set up interventions with certified specialists or organizations. Organized in 30-minute to 1-hour sessions, this time is devoted to warnings, demonstrations (interactive workshops) and possible questions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>By creating kits:<\/strong> several brands have launched educational kits adapted to the youngest. This allows them to learn in a simple and fun way, the good gestures to adopt on a daily basis. These kits are mainly distributed by schools or by dentists who have been trained to do so. They include: a toothbrush, an hourglass, a cup and a tube of toothpaste.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>By advertising<\/strong>: whether it is in digital or physical format, awareness of a subject is often raised through advertising. Why? It&#8217;s a simple way to reach a wider audience. Not only children need to be made aware, but also parents, who are responsible for good hygiene and routine.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>By the Health Insurance:<\/strong> since 2019 the Health Insurance encourages parents to consult a dentist for their children as soon as they reach the age of 3, through a letter. This first appointment, covered by the third-party payer, allows to anticipate possible future complications. Moreover, it allows them to become familiar with a dentist, which is often a barrier that must be removed as soon as possible.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>In short, it is important not to underestimate a good oral routine. Prevention exists in order to avoid more serious and costly consultations. It is at a young age that we learn the good gestures and habits to adopt, so that we can maintain them in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How do we educate youth about oral health?
