Public Service Announcement 

Share your smiles, Nunavummiut

April is Oral Health Month! To celebrate, Nunavummiut are invited to share their bright smiles. From April 11-22, visit your community oral health coordinator or dental therapist, have a photo taken of your smile and enter a draw to win an exciting prize! 

All photos will be shared on bulletin boards at your local dental clinic or community health centre to celebrate Nunavut’s bright smiles! 

You can also take a photo of your smile and post it on social media with the hashtag #kigutiti. Photos with this hashtag will also be entered in the draw. 

Maintaining good oral health includes protecting your teeth against cavities and preventing gum disease, which can lead to health problems like diabetes or respiratory disease. Poor oral health also makes it hard to properly chew and digest food.
