Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to announce that April is Oral Health Month, featuring National Dental Hygienists Week from April 4 to April 10. This annual event is sponsored by the Canadian Dental Hygienists Association and focuses on the importance of maintaining good oral health practices and helping Canadians understand the role of the dental hygiene profession in preventing and addressing oral health issues. Over 31,000 dental hygienists nationwide celebrate this week under the theme “Oral Health for Total Health”, highlighting that taking care of our mouths, teeth and gums has a positive impact on other aspects of our lives. As the federal government rolls out the new Canadian dental care plan, which has a focus on preventative care, dental hygienists will play a front and centre role to help improve oral health outcomes for all Canadians. This April, let us help everyone in Canada learn about oral health for total health.
