World Oral Health Day 2025: Join Toothie, the movie star, in "A Happy Mouth is…A Happy Mind’’

Everyone deserves access to quality oral healthcare and the knowledge needed to maintain a healthy mouth. That’s why, on 20 March every year, we ask the world to unite to raise awareness about the importance of good oral health.

Get ready to celebrate World Oral Health Day 2025

Last year, FDI embarked on a three-year campaign centred around the theme A HAPPY MOUTH IS… to highlight the crucial importance of oral health and its strong connections to overall health.

A happy mouth represents many aspects of well-being, and we began our journey by exploring the links between oral health and physical health.

As we enter the second year of our campaign, FDI shifts the focus this time spotlighting how a happy mouth contributes to a happy mind. The campaign will address another vital topic: the connection between oral health and mental well-being.

So, join us once again as we continue this important journey, this time spotlighting how a happy mouth contributes to a happy mind.

 

Toothie returns — Now with new friends and a music-themed movie!

Last year, Toothie kicked off the new campaign with the release of his first-ever movie. 
Now, he’s back and more charismatic than ever, bringing along some new friends to help spread the word far and wide.

Get ready to meet Miyu, Marcos, Shumba, and Sara as they join him on an exciting journey to highlight the important role oral health plays in our mental well-being.
