11th edition of the "Share a Smile" program

This year, as many as 6,371 children aged 6-9 from various educational institutions in the Łódź Voivodeship joined the program, including 5,091 students from grades 1-3 of primary schools and 1,280 toddlers from preschool and school zero classes.

The program, implemented in cooperation with Mars Polska SP. z o.o., the Polish Dental Society, and the Polish Society of Pediatric Dentistry, focuses on educating children about proper oral hygiene. The introduced lesson scenarios are tailored to the current curriculum and can be flexibly modified to meet the needs of the students.

As part of the initiative, each participating institution received specially prepared brochures for hygienists, nurses, and parents that detail the rules and goals of the program. These activities aim to raise children's awareness of the importance of taking care of their teeth from an early age.

In Łódź, 3,172 children joined the program, and information about the activities was regularly published on the PCK Facebook page and on the pages and Facebook profiles of the institutions participating in the program. The program also enjoyed active participation in other Regional Branches, such as Wieluń, Bełchatów, Łowicz, Pabianice, and Radomsko.

We thank all the institutions, teachers, parents, and our partners for their commitment and support for the healthy smiles of our children! We believe that the implemented health practices will stay with us for many years.
