Toothbrushing Demonstrations
This video is designed to guide your toothbrushing demonstrations. Showing parents how to brush their children's teeth can sometimes feel intimate and daunting. Here are some tips for making the experience as comfortable and effective as possible.
32 Week Visit Roleplay
In this video, our actors are roleplaying a 32 week visit. These conversations are 'gold standard', and serve as an example for how you might use HABIT in an oral health conversation with a parent. The videos have been designed in collaboration with health visitors and parents across Bradford, and are based on real life experiences.
16 Month Visit Roleplay
In this video, our actors are roleplaying a 16 month visit. These conversations are 'gold standard', and serve as an example for how you might use HABIT in an oral health conversation with a parent.
