This website provides information on how to keep your family’s teeth and gums healthy.
Queenslanders have the worst teeth in Australia, with the highest rates of tooth decay. This situation is leading to high personal and community costs and reducing our health and wellbeing. But there is hope. Tooth decay is a preventable disease. By eating a healthy diet, brushing and flossing daily, having regular dental check ups and drinking fluoridated water, your family can be saved from the discomfort and costs of poor dental health.
