“Oral health is an integral part of our health. Atomy India is making an effort to address the health issues of the underprivileged children who have no access or resources to take care of their oral health hygiene and thus impacting their overall health,” said Abraham Lee, Managing Director, Atomy India.
Why Atomy Oral Health Kit?
Atomy’s oral health kit contains a toothbrush which prevents the formation of dental cavities and helps in removing bad breath while a toothbrush provides a refreshing feeling for teeth and gums after brushing. It is oxidised with gold.
According to the company statement,”Adverse oral healthcare can have a significant impact on the whole systematic health and quality of life. Starting oral hygiene from early childhood can prevent oral cancers, dental caries, and periodontal diseases that contribute to the major burden of oral diseases in India.”
Most of the Ukhrul FC Academy kids are said to be from economically backward classes. They are mostly sponsored by the local community and well-wishers. With great enthusiasm, 75 students and management staff participated in the oral health hygiene programme.
