//World Children's Day - 20th of November

Every child has the right to a healthy start in life, and oral health is a crucial part of overall well-being. Poor dental hygiene in childhood can lead to pain, infections, and long-term complications that affect both health and quality of life.

Parents, caregivers, and dental professionals play a key role in establishing healthy routines early — including proper brushing, balanced nutrition, and regular check-ups. Supporting children’s oral health today lays the foundation for a lifetime of strong, confident smiles.

//World Antimicrobial Resistance Day - 18th of November
💊 November 18th is World Antimicrobial Resistance Day, a moment to reflect on one of the most pressing global health challenges of our time.

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) not only threatens systemic health but also has profound implications in dentistry. Overuse and inappropriate prescription of antibiotics in dental practice can contribute to the emergence of resistant oral pathogens, complicating the treatment of common infections such as periodontitis, abscesses, and post-surgical complications.

On this World Antimicrobial Resistance Day, it is crucial to recognize that oral health practices and judicious antibiotic use are integral to combating AMR. Collaboration across medical and dental disciplines is essential to safeguard the effectiveness of antimicrobial therapies for future generations.

//World Diabetes Day - November 14th

November 14 marks World Diabetes Day, a global initiative to raise awareness about the far-reaching impact of diabetes, including its often-overlooked effects on oral health.

Scientific evidence shows that individuals with diabetes are at significantly higher risk of developing periodontal disease, oral infections, xerostomia (dry mouth), and delayed wound healing. Conversely, poor oral health can negatively affect glycemic control, highlighting a bidirectional relationship between metabolic and oral well-being.

This World Diabetes Day, let’s remember that oral health is an integral part of overall health, and awareness, prevention, and interdisciplinary collaboration are key to reducing diabetes-related complications.

//Mouth Cancer Awareness Month 2025
💙 November marks the beginning of Mouth Cancer Awareness Month – a crucial time to raise awareness about one of the fastest-growing types of cancer worldwide.
Mouth cancer can appear in the lips, tongue, gums, cheeks, or roof/floor of the mouth. Sadly, many cases are diagnosed late, which significantly lowers survival rates. Early detection, however, can save lives.

✅ This month, we encourage everyone to:
1. Stay informed about the signs and symptoms.
2. Schedule regular dental and medical check-ups.
3. Share this message to help others become more aware.
Your vigilance could save your life — or someone else’s.

// EDSA Country in Spotlight 💡— October 🥁🥁 UNECD (France)!

🇫🇷 UNECD (Union Nationale des Étudiants en Chirurgie Dentaire) represents one of Europe's largest student communities, covering 21 distinct Dental Faculties and championing the interests of over 7500+ Dental Students across France. 🌍The association is run by a devoted core of 19 Executive Board members. Their spectacular work has reached far and wide, both at home and globally. UNECD's most outstanding achievement is leading crucial international solidarity missions 🤍 which promote vital oral health education in countries such as Senegal, Nepal, and Morocco.

Over the last year, UNECD successfully organised a major Scientific Congress, bringing together students, researchers, and dental industry partners for clinical and scientific discussions. To keep members current, they consistently organise a national congress every four months. 📢💌

Currently, UNECD faces a major undertaking: they are playing a key role in defending student and professional viewpoints during a significant national reorganisation of French dental studies. Their strong advocacy ensures student voices are heard during this crucial reform. 🇫🇷🦷We, at EDSA, are truly proud to shine a light on the impressive commitment and reach of UNECD! 💙💭🫂
