Oral Health conference in Hackney Ann Taylor Center |
|
Conference date :01-07-03 "Generally there seems to be lack of knowledge, on
the topic of oral health, amongst the Turkish community. As I always note
knowledge is passed down from one generation to another. Groundless fears
result from lack of knowledge building a negative aura around the subject
of dentists, making it undesirable therefore more than likely to be put
off until the last necessary minute. When parents are more than reluctant
to visit the dentist then this fear is passed down to the children. We
need to inform our children at an appropriate age and about the correct
way to care for their teeth. Our children look at us as their role models,
so pluck up the courage to visit your dentist regularly and make an effort
to take good care of your teeth and gums. In order to be a good role model
you need to have the knowledge so it is advisable to read up and possibly
research on the subject. This is the reason I am here, to pass on what I
know hoping that some of it will stay on your minds and influence you to
take better oral care of yourself
" Dr Radmand explained and also mentioned that he would
continue his campaign for 'Take better care of your teeth and gums'. Dr Radmand covered various oral health topics and
advised the attendees of the conference on the importance of good oral
care. Many oral health problems were clarified and brought to attention
with the aid of slides and video camera images making the conference
interesting and informative. The conference attendees participated with
the questions they asked and contributed to the conference with the
remarks they made.
