The Korean Dental Prosthetics Association established "Denture Day" in 2016 to commemorate the first day when denture insurance was applied, and has been conducting various campaigns every year.
This year, a richer and more colorful campaign will be held to mark the 10th anniversary and reach more people.
First of all, starting with Jinhae on May 16, the free 'Dental Examination Mobile Bus' project will be supported for denture users in major cities across the country. It will operate three times, from Seoul on June 11 to Gwangju on June 17, and will conduct oral treatment and counseling so that dental dentures can be used in the correct way, such as denture repair and periodontal treatment.
In particular, the Korean Dental Prosthetic Society meets a wide range of citizens by conducting lectures in various formats to inform more citizens of the importance of proper denture use and oral health care. From May 15 to June 17, in collaboration with the Lotte Mart Cultural Center, 25 stores nationwide, including Yangpyeong branch in Seoul, Songpa branch, Singal branch in Gyeonggi Province, Uiwang branch, Goyang branch in Goyang branch, and Gwangju Suwan branch, will hold lectures on dental care with 21 dental prosthetic dentists from each region selected by the Korean Dental Prosthetics Association.
At 2 p.m. on June 13, a free 'live prosthetic class' will be held for ordinary citizens in their 50s and older at Everyone's Study located in Mapo-gu, Seoul. Dentists and professors specializing in prosthetics from the Society of Prosthetics give lectures on oral care information that everyone is curious about in everyday life, such as correct denture care and overall oral health care, and have a Q&A with the audience. The lecture is broadcast live on YouTube and can be heard by interested citizens.
On June 18, specialists from major dental university hospitals plan to hold a webinar for dentists across the country to emphasize the necessity and importance of dentures and proper management methods. The Dental Day celebration webinar is planned four times a year and has been held every three months since March.
Meanwhile, Haylion, who has been with the Korean Dental Prosthetics Association for 10 years, supports this campaign by donating 5,500 pieces of the denture cleanser 'PolyDent 5-minute Quick Plus' from PolyDent, a denture care product brand, and 10,000 samples of 'PolyDent Max Seal' (8.5g) as a denture attachment to the association. The product is delivered to economically vulnerable people who have difficulty using dentures through social welfare centers and nursing homes, including 11 dental university hospitals nationwide. Haylion has been donating polydent products every year, and the cumulative donation amounts to 71,000.
Shin Dong-woo, CEO of Haleyon Korea, said, `We will continue to work together to improve denture awareness and promote proper management methods by supporting the Korean Dental Prosthetics Association, which is carrying out various activities to improve denture awareness on the 10th anniversary of Denture Day.'
Kwak Jae-young, president of the Korean Dental Prosthetics Association, said, `We are pleased that the Korean Dental Prosthetics Association and Haylon will be able to raise public awareness of dentures and promote the importance of oral health management on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of Dental Prosthetics DayThe Korean Dental Prosthetics Association emphasized that it will continue to strive to contribute to the oral health of the people by conducting volunteer activities such as educational activities and free checkups to deliver proper denture management methods.
