Banbury Madni Masjid's Oral Health Workshop: Bright Smiles Ahead!
Banbury Madni Masjid recently organized an oral health workshop aimed at raising awareness among our youth about the importance of lifelong oral hygiene. This initiative reflects our masjid’s commitment to holistic youth development, encouraging both spiritual growth and physical well-being.
The session provided practical demonstrations on correct brushing and flossing methods. Health professionals guided attendees on how small daily habits, if performed correctly, can prevent major dental issues later in life.
A key part of the workshop focused on gum disease and tooth decay, two of the most common oral health concerns. Young participants learned how early prevention and regular dental care can protect them from painful and costly treatments in the future.
Crucially, the workshop tackled the rising issue of vaping and smoking among youth. Experts explained how these habits can cause gum disease, persistent bad breath, and even oral cancers. The message was clear: informed choices today lead to healthier tomorrows.
The interactive nature of the workshop allowed young attendees to openly ask questions and share their concerns. This created a safe space to discuss oral health while reinforcing the value of community support.
Through initiatives like this, Banbury Madni Masjid continues to invest in the overall well-being of our youth. By addressing both physical health and spiritual growth, we strive to nurture a generation of strong, confident, and healthy individuals. Here’s to a brighter future filled with healthy smiles!
Oral hygiene is strongly encouraged in Islam. The Prophet ﷺ recommended the use of the miswak and emphasized cleanliness as part of faith.
Vaping and smoking can cause gum disease, tooth decay, bad breath, and increase the risk of oral cancers. Avoiding them supports both health and Islamic values.
Alongside prayers and religious guidance, the masjid hosts workshops & events that focus on physical health, education, and community development.
