The delivery is part of NHS Cheshire and Merseyside’s ‘All Together Smiling Supervised Toothbrushing Programme’, aiming to reduce the need for dental treatment for children under 10 in the region’s most deprived areas.
The All Together Smiling programme is being delivered through Beyond, the Cheshire and Merseyside children and young people’s transformation programme.
Over 210,000 toothbrushes, pastes and how-to guides have been distributed across Cheshire and Merseyside. Working with local partners, packs are delivered to educational and non-educational organisations in the community where the risk of poor dental health is highest.
The programme delivers age-appropriate support in early years settings, with trained staff using songs, videos and stickers to encourage children.
