Workshops

Workshops involve dental practices and oral health educators popping into schools, care homes, community centres or workplaces to deliver oral health education.
Workshops work well because they encourage interactivity between the person giving the workshop, and those taking part in it. It’s a relaxed atmosphere that encourages questions and natural conversation – that way, all need-to-know questions are covered.
Get participants involved in activities and that require them to do something rather than sit and listen. Whether it’s arts and crafts for children making their own mouth models, or groups of office workers deciding which food have the most sugar in them, actively taking part in these activities ensures everybody learns something positive about their oral health.
Be sure to cater your workshop and messages to who you’re going to visit. Here are some of our ideas to get you started:
