In Hertfordshire we have developed the Hertfordshire Healthy Mouths programme to help address some of the inequalities that exist in the oral health of children. The Healthy Mouths programme is aimed at improving the oral health of vulnerable under 5’s in Hertfordshire and is available through your local Family Centre or Health Visitor.
You may qualify for a free oral health pack, comprising age-appropriate toothpaste, (0-2 years and 3-5 years) a toothbrush, a 2-minute timer and a ‘Top Tips’ information leaflet. The information leaflet is also available in the following languages:
- Dari Afghan
- Pashto Afghan
- Romanian
- Urdu
- Twi
- Turkish
- Polish
- Ukrainian
If you need good oral health advice or support speak to your local Family Centre by calling 0300 123 7572 or register with them by visiting their website www.hertsfamilycentres.org or scan the QR code below.
Remember . . . A regular teeth-cleaning routine is essential for good dental health. Follow the tips on this Health for Under 5s website, and you can help keep your kids’ teeth decay free.
