Smile4Life sees Lancashire County Council join forces with NHS Central Lancashire, NHS North Lancashire and NHS East Lancashire, to combat the regions poor record on tooth decay in children by educating pre-school children about the importance of looking after their teeth.
The programme involves members of the local NHS dental team visiting pre-schools across the county to provide advice to young children and their carers on tooth brushing, the importance of regular visits to the dentists, and encouraging a healthier diet.
After the official launch at the Woodlands Centre in Chorley, Lord Howe paid a visit to Ribbleton Childrens Centre in Preston where he met with staff and children to see first hand how members of the local NHS dental team and nursery teachers work together to encourage better oral health in children...........
Thankfully no mention of fluoridation
