Dr. Louisa Satekla, a prominent advocate for oral health, recently visited Haruna Iddrisu, the former Minority Leader in Parliament, to discuss initiatives aimed at enhancing oral health education in the country. This courtesy call is part of her commitment to raising awareness about proper dental care and its significance for overall well-being.
During their meeting, Dr. Satekla emphasized the importance of integrating oral health education into public health campaigns and school curricula. She highlighted that many preventable dental issues stem from a lack of awareness and education among the population. By collaborating with influential figures like Iddrisu, she hopes to garner greater support for these initiatives.
Iddrisu expressed his appreciation for Dr. Satekla's efforts and underscored the need for comprehensive strategies that promote healthy habits from a young age. Both parties agreed on the necessity of fostering partnerships between government agencies and healthcare professionals to ensure effective outreach and implementation of oral health programs across communities. Their dialogue marks a significant step towards improving public understanding of dental hygiene and promoting healthier lifestyles nationwide.
