Between 13th May until 13th June 2019 Swettenham Chemists will be taking part in NHS England's Community Pharmacy Oral Health campaign. Call in to our branches during the campaign and talk to our trained healthcare advisors. Receive a FREE information card which explains how to keep kids smiling, how to be sugar smart and how to get the best from your toothbrush. By working together we hope to get parents and kids talking and thinking about their dental health.
The campaign coincides with National Smile Month and is targeted at parents or carers of children under the age of five. Our staff will be sharing key messages which parents, carers and children can take every day to protect and improve their oral health.
Here's just some of the tips which can help to maintain and improve a child's oral health.
