We asked over 2000 people for their thoughts on sugar intake as part of our #SmileMonth research, and tooth decay was only the fourth most common concern.
Going on a first date and smiling in photos are the two most common reasons people feel self-consious about their teeth, according to our #SmileMonth research.
On top of a good daily routine, visiting the dentist as often as they recommend is the best way to keep your oral health in the best shape it can be.

One of the most striking findings here is that affordability may now be overtaking access as the key issue in dentistry. Even where care exists, growing numbers of patients appear worried about whether they can actually pay for it - NHS or private. That’s a major shift in the debate around oral health. gdpuk.com/news/one-in-15-res…
Dental nurses are absolutely critical to the oral health team. How can they be better utilised in practice? #smilemonth

🌟 Dental check by age 1
🌟 Start brushing 2 x a day as soon as the first tooth appears (smear of toothpaste for under 3 yrs) (over 3 yrs - a pea sized amount)
🌟 Safest drinks for our teeth are plain milk &water
🌟 limit sugary snacks to mealtimes
