National Smile Month is the largest and longest-running oral (口腔的) health campaign (运动) in the UK. National Smile Month will be sharing positive messages and encouraging others to develop and have a healthy mouth between May 13 and June 13, 2024.
The British are known for their bad teeth because they have too many sweet foods and drinks. It seems that most of them don't often show their feelings. They neither smile nor cry. But this is not true. The British like to smile as much as anyone else. They just don't want to show their bad teeth.
There are three key messages in helping people develop and have a healthy mouth. They are:
■ Brush your teeth at night and at least once a day.
■ Cut down on how much sweet food and drink you have, and how often you have them.
■ Visit your dentist regularly, as often as they ask you to do.
With the help of these three messages, people can realize the importance of good teeth and be confident enough to open their mouths to smile. National Smile Month isn't just about education and stressing the importance of a healthy mouth. The key to the success of the campaign is that we have lots of fun doing it!
A smile might be a small body language, yet it can make a great difference to our state of mind. You can support National Smile Month in so many ways. Hold events to raise awareness (意识) of oral health, or simply post something on social media. By taking part in National Smile Month, you can help to create a healthier and happier world.

Proms(毕业舞会) are a big part of high school for students in the UK. A school prom is a party to celebrate an important date at school, such as the end of secondary school or completing school exams. |
Prom parties | Proms are usually held in June, around the end of exam time. The idea is to have fun with your school friends. Some schools even hold the party in a five-star hotel. Others have a more basic dinner in the school itself. A prom organizer provides everything for the special event, such as balloons, food and music. |
Clothes and beauty | Young people like to dress up for their prom. On prom night, girls change their school uniform for an evening dress and high heels. Boys usually dress up in a suit with a tic and smart shoes. |
Cars | Arriving at your prom in a good car is very popular! The party can start on the way to the dinner or dance. Part of the fun for some prom-goers is to drive around town in their best clothes and make sure that everyone sees them. |
An American tradition | Not long ago, most British schools didn't have school proms. They had a simple school dance at the end of term. Now, more than 85% of schools in Britain have a prom. Many parents see the prom as an import from the US. They say that American TV programs and films such as High School Musical have had a big influence on their kids. |
