Dubai, UAE (May 6, 2026)\u2014 In a joint effort to advance community health education, Dubai Medical University College of Pharmacy, in collaboration with Emirates Health Services (EHS), recently organized a virtual webinar focused on promoting general oral health awareness across diverse age groups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The session formed part of an ongoing community engagement and public health campaign aimed at equipping individuals with practical knowledge on maintaining oral hygiene and preventing common dental diseases. The initiative reflects a broader commitment by both institutions to strengthen preventive healthcare through education and outreach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The webinar was moderated by Dr. Ahmad El Ouweini, Assistant Professor at Dubai Medical University College of Pharmacy, who guided the discussion and facilitated audience interaction throughout the session. The featured speaker, Dr. Nura Jumaa, a pediatric dentist with Emirates Health Services, delivered an in-depth presentation on oral health practices tailored to different stages of life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Jumaa emphasized the importance of establishing strong oral hygiene habits early in childhood, noting that preventive care significantly reduces the risk of dental complications later in life. She also addressed common oral health challenges affecting adolescents, adults, and the elderly, highlighting age-specific strategies for disease prevention, including proper brushing and flossing techniques, balanced nutrition, and the importance of routine dental check-ups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A key component of the session was its focus on community engagement. Dr. Jumaa shared insights from her work in outreach programs under Emirates Health Services, where she actively promotes healthy oral health lifestyles through educational initiatives targeting families and schools. Her presentation underscored the role of public awareness in reducing the prevalence of preventable oral diseases such as dental caries and periodontal conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
