To echo the World Oral Health Day of FDI World Dental Federation (FDI) celebrated annually on 20 March, Hong Kong Dental Association (HKDA) has been organizing a series of oral health promotion activities. As a highlight and signature event among the celebration activities, HKDA will organize the Oral Health Week 2024 from 9 May to 14 May 2024.

Continuing the atmosphere of WOHD and propagating FDI’s “Vision 2030 – Delivering Oral Health for All, this territory-wide campaign aims to encourage and invite all registered dentists in Hong Kong to participate voluntarily by offering one-off free oral examinations, oral health consultations, and X-ray examinations to the public at their respective clinics throughout the entire week. This presents a valuable opportunity to enhance public awareness of primary oral healthcare, in line with the Government’s advocacy of primary healthcare and in response to FDI’s Vision 2030.

To mark the commencement of Oral Health Week 2024, a Kick-Off Ceremony will be held on 8 May 2024. The Ceremony will be concluded by thematic presentations by distinguished dental colleagues.

HKDA is honoured to have enlisted the support from Asia Pacific Dental Federation/ Asia Pacific Regional Organization and the Chinese Stomatological Association as our Advisory Organizations and that from dental organizations, professional bodies, dental companies, community units, as co-organizing or supporting partners of this event.
