Disturbed by the outcome of global research revealing that fewer persons brush twice daily, experts have launched #BrushWithMe campaign to sensitise Nigerians on importance of improved hygiene in this COVID-19 era.

During the pandemic-compliant conference graced by professionals, including parent influencers, Mrs. Mercy Johnson Okojie and Sisi Yemmie; dentists, Dr. Timi Akinmuda, Dr. Uyi Idah, Dr. Feyisike Dauda (representatives of the Nigerian Dental Association) and Director of Dentistry, Federal Ministry of Health, Dr. Bola Alonge, in Lagos, the gathering regretted that oral health was not prioritised during the lockdown.

The dentists, among the participants, confirmed that less people visited dental clinics despite the fact that more confirmed cases had been reported in the last one year.
