Gum Health Day on May 12 was a resounding success. Many national societies, members and partners took part by planning local activities, sharing information (including the official video) on social media and embraced the slogan: “Healthy gums look good on you! Protect them!”

The EFP hosted a photo contest related to the slogan on Instagram. The three winners were announced this week on social media.

Winning entries were submitted by:

Emanuele Vaia, SDPI

Emilio Mateo, Sepa

Lorelay Bragard, Sobrapi

Finalists won a free registration to EuroPerio11 and the opportunity to have their photos illustrate future EFP publications.

Thanks to the active participation of members, followers and influencers, Gum Health Day 2023 had a large impact on social media, especially on Instagram, where followers used the special filter, shared EFP educational videos and created their own stories and posts using the dedicated campaign builder.

Gum Health Day 2023 coordinator, Spyros Vassilopoulos said: “On behalf of the EFP I would like to thank everyone who joined us in this incredible celebration: national societies, members, press, followers, influencers, and partners. Your support and reactions, “likes” and comments, and the inspiring stories you uploaded on Instagram, helped us to create a powerful message and to disseminate the meaning of healthy gums for a better life. Together we can create a big buzz for gum health, there is no question about it. See you next year and thanks again for embracing our campaign and our slogan, and don't forget: ‘healthy gums look good on you!’ Protect them dear friends.”
