One word from #RAYLA2026 ?
" We do things not because they are EASY, but because they're HARD!"

Tomorrow is World Oral Health Day, and we responded with impact.

We conducted an outreach at EP Kibagabaga, reaching children at a early stage of habit formation. By focusing on prevention and oral health education, we can reduce risks and address dental caries risk early.

A pea-sized amount (or a smear for little kids) of fluoride toothpaste is ALL you need.
Excess just = more foam, no extra cleaning power, and higher risk of swallowing too much fluoride. Brush gently for 2 min twice a day.

Technique > quantity every time.

Apparently, most people under-brush, but evidence shows 2 full minutes twice daily removes significantly more plaque than 1 minute. Set a timer—your teeth will thank you!

HONESTLY ‼️
How long do you actually brush your teeth? Be real with me 😊🧐

[Pacifique M. Irakiza @Irakiza010]

Ibaze uri kwimuka... ushaka kujyana n'iyo toothbrush yawe imaze years🤌 uziko harimo bacteria nka cent?!
Changing cities, countries, or just traveling? Let that be your big reminder: dump that 3+ months old toothbrush.

Who's packing an ancient toothbrush right now?😂

[Sam Cartier @Sam_Cartierr]

Mwaramutse neza!

Koza amenyo nibura 2 ku munsi knd ugakoresha floss buri munsi ni ingenzi cyane mu kubungabunga ubuzima bwiza bwo mukanwa. Ushobora kubigerageza igihe cyose ariko ukoresheje umuti w’amenyo urimo fluoride kugira ngo urinde amenyo knd wirinde indwara zo mu kanwa.

Brushing harder = cleaner teeth❌

This is one of the most widespread myths.
Scrubbing aggressively does not remove more plaque, it often wears down tooth enamel, causes gum recession, tooth sensitivity, and even makes teeth appear more yellow over time as dentin shows through.

[Pacifique M. Irakiza @Irakiza010]

Brushing without flossing is like showering but forgetting your armpits. 😆 Don’t let bacteria hide & party in your gums!
