To mark the unveiling of National Smile Month 2013, the British Dental Health Foundation are giving away 15,000 'Smileys' on a first-come first-served basis.

The first 3,000 eligible organisations who declare their interest on the National Smile Month website will each receive five free 'Smileys' as well as a campaign guide packed with information on how to get the best out of this year's campaign.

National Smile Month promotes three key messages for great oral health: to brush for two minutes twice a day with a fluoride toothpaste; to cut down on how often you eat sugary foods and drinks; and to visit the dentist regularly, as often as they recommend.

After the success of the 'Smiley' in 2012, Director of Educational Resources at the Foundation, Amanda Oakey, expects the re-vamped campaign icons to be a similar success this year: 'People were absolutely thrilled with the Smileys. They're fun, they're educational and they are a great way to get people talking about oral health.'

The campaign runs from 20 May to 20 June 2013; to find out more and to register for five free Smileys, visit www.smilemonth.org.
