Blossoming from a simple idea of sharing, DIA PENERUS BANGSA emerged in 2016 with a mission to contribute knowledge and wisdom to the community. We embarked on a journey, visiting schools, conducting seminars, workshops, and dental check-ups. Today, several schools have joined hands with DIA PENERUS BANGSA, offering annual free check-ups, with the schools providing only time and space, while we bring the tools.
Our Vision at DIA PENERUS BANGSA is to instill awareness of the vital importance of oral health for children. The mouth serves as the primary gateway for nourishment into the body, and children are the future stewards of our nation.
Join us on this transformative journey where oral health meets education. Together, we lay the foundation for a healthier and brighter future.
“Have you brushed your teeth correctly this morning?”
A movement to care for the oral and mental health of children is crucial because they are the future generation of the nation. Giving special attention to both the mental and oral health of children is not only for their individual well-being but also for the overall health of society.
Providing education to parents, teachers, and children themselves about the importance of maintaining dental and oral health. This can be done through seminars, workshops, or health education campaigns in schools and communities.
Encouraging parents to take their children for routine check-ups, including dental check-ups and mental health screenings, early on. This helps in early detection of issues and provides interventions before they become more serious.
Ensuring that children receive adequate fluoride, either through fluoride toothpaste or through fluoridated drinking water sources. Fluoride helps strengthen tooth enamel and prevents tooth decay.
Encouraging active participation of communities in mental health awareness programs, destigmatization efforts, and access to mental health services. This includes providing resources and support for families facing mental health challenges.
Together, we lay the foundation for a healthier and brighter future!
