Nothing sweet about tooth decay

Last Updated: Wednesday, February 9, 2022, 00:04

Sir, – The pandemic has changed the way we live our lives. Self-care has been promoted as a tool to look after ourselves, including eating nourishing food, less sugar, exercise, oral hygiene, sleep, enjoyable hobbies, and relaxation time. Now that things are returning to normal, we can still be mindful about prioritising these healthy habits as part of our daily routine.

There is nothing sweet about tooth decay, so with Valentine’s Day approaching, why not change our mindset and make it less about treats such as chocolate and more about making someone else feel special. – Yours, etc,
