At Isobel Mair Family Centre all staff are committed to Oral Health Promotion.

We have maintained a 100% parent consent for our toothbrushing since starting the programme in 2011. All staff are trained and ensure the correct procedures are implemented when toothbrushing.

As part of our ongoing oral health promotion, we are taking part in Childsmile Month; raising awareness of the important messages about good dental health and hygiene.

Miss Hannah Dewhurst is our lead practitioner in oral health promotion. In addition to her role as Child Development Officer within Cara Playroom, Hannah takes on responsibility for overseeing the Childsmile programme,  liaising with the Oral Health Promoter from East Renfrewshire. Hannah has been working with the children in a variety of way to promote oral health key messages.

Have a look at our photographs and come and see the work the children have been doing.

Remember to participate in the ‘Design a Toothbrush’ competition! The children came up with this idea when planning their learning with Hannah.
