October Is National Dental Hygiene Month

Before we get into the worst Halloween candies known to man, let us ask you a question.

When is the last time you thought about your dental hygiene?

It was probably the last time you brushed, flossed, or rinsed with mouthwash.

And if we asked you when the last time was that you thought about your dental hygienist, you’d probably say the last time you were at the dentist.

Well, our fierce frontline defenders against the cavity creeps are here to change all that each October, with National Dental Hygiene Month.

Dental Hygienists across the country are teaming up with Walgreens and Listerine® in a nationwide effort to bring awareness and promote optimal oral health!

“ADHA is proud to be a part of this national campaign with displays going up all month long in 5,433 Walgreens locations across the country as well as on Pandora radio, in print, and online.”
