September is Oral Hygiene Awareness Month and the best manner in which to ensure that children do not get cavities or periodontal disease is to instill comprehensive oral hygiene through early education.

The campaign is an initiative between Time Media, Metrorail and Dentazyme Toothpaste and is endorsed by the Western Cape Minister of Health, Theuns Botha, the UWC Faculty of Dentistry and the SA Dentistry Association.

Minister Botha will address a group of Grade 6 learners from Searidge Primary School, Mitchell's Plain, at Cape Town Station.
