This book was inspired by my years in practice as a dentist. Each day, I meet parents who are clueless about dental hygiene and care. It became my mission to equip the young generation of children to have the right knowledge about dentistry, to prevent unnecessary and avoidable dental damage. My mission is to ensure that children enjoy healthy oral health. This is also my WHY. Getting this book into every little hand. I want to inspire the generation of children who are already aware of dental hygiene because they have been raised intentionally. I hope that this book gets into the hands of every child, and draws the attention of major players in the oral health sector for a deserving sponsorship to serve better. A sponsorship that would make my dreams of greater impact a reality. I look forward to toothpaste production companies and such sponsoring to get this book into schools, homes, and religious places. I want this book to be a movement.
