worldhealth22032017PHILIPSBURG:--- Taking care of your oral health has a positive impact on your general health and well-being, helping you live a better quality of life into old age. Oral health is much more than a nice smile. Oral disease can affect every aspect of your life – including your ability to perform basic functions. An unhealthy mouth, for example, if you have gum disease, can increase your risk of diabetes, heart disease, pancreatic cancers and pneumonia. Therefore, it is important for everyone to practice good oral hygiene”, stated Minister Emil Lee in commemoration of World Oral Health Day.

On Monday, Minister Lee attended a session at the Sister Basilia Center where he gave opening remarks encouraged the residents to be pro-active about oral hygiene.
