Childsmile delivers a range of preventive care for children in nursery and primary school who are at increased risk of dental disease. All Primary 1 and Primary 2 pupils at our school participate in Childsmile’s toothbrushing programme.
Role of Education staff
Our school staff and the local Childsmile team work together to ensure that:
- the supervised Toothbrushing Programme is delivered as part of the daily routine
- a suitable space is available for the Childsmile team to provide interventions to children
- a family struggling to get a child to brush their teeth have appropriate support
- families are informed about Childsmile locally.
