To celebrate National Toothbrushing Day, educators from Twinkle Star and Day Care Centre engaged children in discussions about the significance of daily tooth brushing.
Premina Singh, the centre’s director, noted that teachers shared their own tooth brushing routines, emphasizing the importance of maintaining healthy teeth and gums.
“The toothbrushes and toothpaste were provided by Colgate and handed out to our students,” Ms. Singh confirmed.
She stressed the importance of practicing good oral hygiene through regular brushing, highlighting that caring for their teeth and gums can prevent serious health issues.
“Having healthy teeth and gums is also linked to good mental health and self-confidence, as clean teeth are essential for eating and effective communication,” she added.
During the event, students were shown posters and images related to oral health, enhancing their understanding of dental care.
Every day, students at the centre brush their teeth after lunch.
