It's World Oral Health Day on March 20th - a chance to think about all things mouth related!
Oral health refers to the health of your teeth, gums and mouth care.
Tooth decay and gum disease are the most common oral health conditions but they are largely preventable with the right oral health routine.
Poor oral health can affect your overall health but if your mouth is healthy, it is easier to chew, taste, swallow, speak, and smile.
Oral health is in your hands and all it takes is a few simple steps every day to ensure you have healthy teeth and gums for a lifetime.
You can find lots of advice on how to keep your smile in top condition, whatever your age, online here.

We're encouraging parents and guardians of children aged one to five years to check that they are up to date with their MMR vaccines.
The MMR vaccine protects against three infections - measles, mumps and rubella.
One in 10 children under the age of five in England haven’t had one or both of their MMR vaccines.
If your child is not up to date with their two doses of MMR vaccine you should contact your GP practice to book an appointment. It’s never too late to catch up.
