Health education session on oral health for children and parents
Published on
A health education session brought children and parents together under the professional guidance of dentist Besa Neziri.
The session focused on raising awareness of how oral health contributes to general wellbeing. The dentist gave a detailed description of tooth anatomy and explained the processes that lead to dental disease, including tooth decay and periodontal disease. She stressed the importance of correct brushing technique, flossing, and the use of mouthwash.
The highlight for the children was a practical demonstration of a dental examination using real instruments, which turned them into “little doctors” for a few minutes.
This activity was part of the Healthy Athletes initiative of Special Olympics Albania.
