Dental Health Week 2025

Come celebrate Dental Health Week 2025 with us!

Lets celebrate every S-milestone with a healthy smile!

💡 What Is Dental Health Week?

Dental Health Week 2025

Dental Health Week (DHW) is an annual campaign that focuses on the importance of maintaining good oral hygiene and visiting your dentist regularly. This year’s DHW campaign (4-10 August), focuses on the importance of children’s oral health milestones, educating parents and caregivers about what they need to do to help their kids “reach every S-milestone”, taking them on a journey from birth through their initial teeth and beyond. 

At Heritage Dental Group in Indooroopilly, we’re proud to support this campaign by the Australian Dental Association (ADA), helping our patients protect their smiles through every stage of life. Dr Singh strongly recommends 6-12 monthly dental checkup for children. We try our best to reach out to local childcare centres, offering dental visit to the centre, inviting parents to ask questions about their child’s dental health and encourage good oral hygiene habits from an early age.


🪥 Key Messages for Dental Health Week 2025

The core messaging of the campaign will reinforce these key elements of looking after children’s oral health

😀 Birth to First tooth – Clean Gums with a clean soft damp cloth.
😀 First tooth to 18 months – Brush twice daily and take children for their first dental visit.
😀 18 Months to 6 years – Brush with kid’s fluoride toothpaste and floss between teeth that touch. Have regular dental visits.
😃 From 6 years old – Use adult fluoride toothpaste, brush twice a day, floss teeth and have regular dental visits.
😃 From 8 years old – Support children to brush and floss on their own. Have a regular dental visits.
We encourage parents to bring their little ones for regular dental check-ups and see our gentle dentist Dr Singh at Heritage Dental Group.
