RTÉ Radio 1: How to keep your teeth healthy with Dr Caroline Robins
On RTÉ Radio 1’s Today with Claire Byrne last week, Dr Caroline Robins spoke to Philip Boucher-Hayes about children’s dental health – starting with the worrying trend of missed dental appointments, but quickly moving into practical advice for keeping teeth healthy all year round. It’s great to see oral health practices and behaviours being discussed in the wake of the recent Oireachtas debate on the lack of dental services. Conversations like these are vital to raising awareness and empowering families to take positive action.
