TDA 20 March World Oral Health Day Activity Report

Campaign

As the Turkish Dental Association (TDB), in order to celebrate World Oral Health Day in a more enthusiastic and visible manner that reaches much broader audiences, a planned and multi-channel communication process was conducted throughout the first quarter of 2026, building upon initiatives that began in 2025. This special day was treated not merely as a day of celebration but as a strategic opportunity to increase oral and dental health awareness, popularise the preventive dentistry approach, and create lasting consciousness in individuals' daily life habits.
