Something free and genuinely useful you could do this World Mental Health Day is to share this information. You never know who might desperately need to see it. #NoMindLeftBehind @MindCharity

🎉 On this International Day of Older Persons, let’s celebrate our senior community and highlight the importance of good oral health. 🦷 A healthy mouth is crucial for overall well-being, yet over 90% of older adults in some regions lack access to essential oral care.

#InternationalDayOfOlderPersons. The older population are retaining their teeth which should be celebrated.However, for many older people accessing dental care and support with daily mouthcare is an issue.Poor oral health can lead to significant pain and infection

👇This is great. With some existing challenging recruitment issues for CDS and speciality training , I think we need something similar for #specialcaredentistry ??? @Gerodontology
