It’s time to share a smile. June is Oral Health Month in the United States, and this year we’re a proud sponsor of the Share Your Smile campaign in partnership with America’s Toothfairy.

Oral care is an essential cornerstone to our overall health, but not everyone has adequate access to products or treatment. Even as the oral care industry continues to innovate and improve, dental inequalities remain prevalent across the world. In the US, 65% of people without insurance have skipped dental treatment due to cost, and approximately 60 million live in areas where there aren’t enough dentists.

At ORDO, we believe that everyone deserves equal access to high-quality oral care, regardless of income. By expanding access to oral health education through schools, clinics and community programs, we help children build healthy habits and reduce barriers to preventative care.

Brushes for brighter smiles

In the US, half of children already have cavities in their primary or permanent teeth by the age of 9. Together, we can combat this. Developing a positive oral health routine young creates lasting habits that will stay with your child through their teen and adult years. One of the easiest rules to remember: brush your teeth for two minutes, twice a day.

But we know that it's not always that simple. Children are more likely to brush when it's fun, engaging and reinforced with positivity. Our Sonic Kids Rechargeable Toothbrush incorporates guided brushing through audio-haptic feedback, turning two minutes of brushing into an enjoyable, lasting routine. The built-in Progress Tracker acts as a timer to ensure that your children’s teeth are getting the deep clean they deserve.

With the option to choose their favourite Squishmallows character, they’ll build healthy habits with a brush that they’ll want to use. And with three brushing modes, (Training, Clean and Power), this is a brush designed to see them through every milestone.

For the younger ones, our Sonic Kids Battery Toothbrush is portable, compact and features an easy-grip handle that’s perfect for small hands. They can now join the Squish Squad with their favourite Squishmallows character, or choose between our latest Minions collaboration – there’s a brush for everyone, because everyone deserves their perfect brush.

At ORDO, we believe that a happy smile is a healthy smile. So, no matter what yours looks like, we hope you’ll join us and America’s Toothfairy in sharing a smile this month in support of equal access to oral care.

Oral health education starts early

You’re never too old to develop a positive oral health routine, but we know that starting healthy habits young is the best way to build a strong foundation for life. Which is why we’ve made a donation to America’s Toothfairy to fund the creation of 500 Smile Guardian Kits. Including toothbrushes, toothpaste and educational materials, these kits help families and kids engage in healthy oral care habits. Through initiatives like this, America’s Toothfairy has helped over 1.4 million people across the United States access essential oral care.

Through charity partners like America’s Toothfairy, and with the support of education professionals and volunteers globally, we’ve been able to provide youth across the world with access to high-quality oral care – over 4,000 toothbrushes have been donated so far.

At ORDO, we know that providing children with the knowledge, skills and products to develop positive routines is key. Which is exactly what we’ve kept in mind when designing our Sonic Kids range – effective, engaging, affordable and designed to build healthy habits to last a lifetime.
