Everything crossed #teamBradford#BradfordBabiesBrushing#smilesforlife
During the pandemic, schools were closed. So we launched Bradford babies brush for the day nurseries that were still open. We provided training and equipment so the children could brush once a day in nursery. And now we are finalists at the Clinical dentistry awards!😁@BDCFT

We are supporting National Smile Month because a healthy mouth means a healthy body. Brushing is so important to maintain good oral health
Brush your teeth last thing at night and at one other time during the day with a fluoride toothpaste #SmileMonth @BDCFT @dentalhealthorg

If everyone in England halved there sugar intake, in 5 years we could save the NHS £500m every year.Reducing sugar can reduce the risk of complex and costly health treatments. Which could prevent 4,000 early deaths and 200,000 cases of tooth decay a year. #gofizzfree @BDCFT

It’s National Smile Month - the perfect opportunity to reassess your oral health . Top tip - after brushing spit don’t rinse . Fluoride will help protect our teeth @BDCFT #Smilemonth

A top tip during National smile month is to choose a healthy snack that’s low in sugar to help reduce tooth decay and keep your body healthy. #smilemonth @BDCFT

An email received from a carehome who took part in the care home oral health mentorship pilot. Sometimes a simple ‘thank you’ goes a long way. Feeling very proud that we made a difference to how mouthcare is delivered in this Bradford care home #mouthcarematters @BDCFT
