10th of October - World Mental Health Day
Mental health and physical health are deeply connected, and oral health is no exception. Stress, anxiety, and certain medications can increase the risk of gum disease, dry mouth, and other dental issues, while chronic oral problems can negatively affect well-being and self-confidence.
On World Mental Health Day, it’s important to recognize that taking care of your mind includes caring for your body — and your smile. Taking care of your mental health is essential — prioritize rest, set boundaries, and seek support when needed.
Small daily actions can make a big difference for your well-being!

September 25 –The Pharmacist Day

Today we celebrate pharmacists, the healthcare professionals who play a crucial role in keeping us healthy. From advising on medications to supporting overall wellness, their expertise touches many aspects of our lives – including oral health!

💡 Did you know that many common medications can impact oral health, causing dry mouth, gum irritation, or increased risk of cavities? Working together, pharmacists and dentists help ensure our smiles stay healthy while managing medications safely.

🦷 This Pharmacist Day, let’s appreciate the teamwork that helps us maintain healthy smiles and overall well-being!

Head and neck cancers are strongly associated with several preventable risk factors:
🚬 To***co use remains the leading cause, directly damaging the cells of the mouth and throat.
🍷 Excessive alcohol consumption significantly increases the risk, particularly when combined with smoking.
🦠 Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infection is a major contributor, especially to cancers of the oropharynx (tonsils and base of tongue).
Additional factors include poor nutrition, prolonged sun exposure, and occupational hazards such as wood dust.
Many of these cancers can be prevented through lifestyle changes, HPV vaccination, and regular medical and dental check-ups.
Early detection saves lives – remain aware and proactive.

🌟 September 18 – Mouth Cancer Awareness Day 🌟

Today, we come together to raise awareness about oral cancer, a condition that can often be detected early through regular check-ups and attention to warning signs. Prevention and early detection are our strongest allies in protecting oral health!

Did you know that around 350,000 people are diagnosed with oral cancer globally every year? Recognizing symptoms early can make a life-saving difference.

🦷 Take care of your oral health: maintain good hygiene, schedule regular dental exams, and avoid risk factors such as smoking and excessive alcohol consumption.

🔗 Stay tuned and join us in November – Oral Cancer Awareness Month, when we’ll launch a campaign dedicated to education and prevention, helping protect as many smiles as possible!

Know the warning signs: persistent sores, red/white patches, pain, difficulty swallowing. Many of these symptoms can be caused by less serious conditions. However, if they persist for more than three weeks, it is important to seek medical or dental advice immediately.
