Motivating people to solve social problems is a top priority for most advocates. Yet, our communications often paint a doom-and-gloom picture that stokes fatalism, rather than sparking motivation.

💡 Pro Tip: Try building solutions into your messages early and often

Even a lesion in its “early stages” is a clear sign of a much greater problem: SEVERE Dental Caries disease, and thus has to get us thinking what risk factors are present and not just impacting the mouth?
