San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) March 31, 2014 -- Mediaplanet announces the launch of “Oral Health Awareness”, a cross-platform campaign distributed today as an 8-page print publication within The San Francisco Chronicle, and digitally across a network of online platforms, reaching over 3 million readers.
Poor oral health is quickly becoming an epidemic in this country, and can lead to such serious diseases as cancer and diabetes. “Oral Health Awareness” aims to educate readers about oral health as tantamount to general health and well being, and to provide them with information about behaviors and preventive measures they can adopt to cultivate a healthy smile, which can be the gateway to a healthy life.
The campaign succeeds in uniting the organizations, companies, thought leaders, and consumers in the oral health industry. Brooke Burke, Operation Smile advocate, graces the cover of the print component, while other contributors to the educational content include: the California Dental Association, the American Academy for Oral Systemic Health, the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, the American Academy for Cosmetic Dentistry, Oral Health America, and many more.
Healthcare professionals implore Americans to recognize the critical situation that is oral health in the United States today, with 80 percent of the population experiencing some kind of periodontal disease. This campaign serves as a platform for the industry’s call to action for readers to not only commit themselves to improving their oral health, but also to take pride in their smile – a gateway to self-esteem. Through the collaboration of key industry leaders in the field of oral health, we aim to educate readers about the steps required for a healthy and happy mouth.
