HEALTHY TEETH, HAPPY SMILES

Healthy Teeth, Happy Smiles is a Leicester City Council & Public Health England initiative to improve the oral health of children and adults in Leicester, and reduce tooth decay and associated health issues.
 
Healthy Teeth, Happy Smiles aims to provide:
  • Free toothbrushes and toothpaste for children in oral health packs

    All children in the city will receive five oral health care packs by the time they are five, which contain a toothbrush, fluoride toothpaste and oral health information.

  • Baby Bottles

    Free baby bottle swaps in all of our children, young people and families centres.

  • Supervised tooth brushing

    Many of our early years’ settings (aged 0-5) take part in our free supervised tooth brushing programme where your children will learn how to brush their teeth properly every day.

ORAL HEALTH TIPS

There are a number of simple steps you can take to improve your child's oral health: 
  • Take your child to see the dentist before they are one and go regularly
  • Brush your child's teeth as soon as the first tooth appears
  • Brush at least twice a day
  • Don't rinse after brushing just spit the toothpaste out
  • Use a fluoride toothpaste
  • Ask your dentist about fluoride varnish
  • Limit sugary drinks and snacks to meal times only
Call The Whitehouse Surgery in Leicester to find out more about how to look after your child’s teeth.
