Challenge

The pandemic disrupted daily life and access to dental care was severely hampered. Children whose dental problems might have been easily taken care of in dental clinics or mobile dentists had to wait, but teeth don't get better on their own, so these problems just got worse and needed even more treatment. It has however become important to push oral health messages out to children and families to practice good dental habits during the pandemic and every day.

Solution

It has however become important to push oral health messages out to children and families to practice good dental habits during the pandemic and every day. More attention needs to be paid to instructing them on maintaining good oral health hygiene and that is where the oral health book comes in

Long-Term Impact

To reach over 5 million rural children in Africa with oral health education using animation and oral health story books. To improve oral health status of children in Africa.
