Outreach Oral Health Programme for Pre-school Children
Establishing good oral care habits during early childhood is essential for maintaining lifelong oral and overall health. To further enhance oral health among pre-school children, the Government will launch the Outreach Oral Health Programme for Pre-school Children on 1 September 2026, providing free oral health services to kindergarten students across Hong Kong.
The programme is open to kindergarten students aged 32 months or above, including those attending kindergartens and kindergarten-cum-child care centres.
Under the programme, participating children will receive oral examinations, oral health risk assessments, topical fluoride applications where appropriate, and oral health reports. Parents of children with dental caries will be provided with personalised oral care advice, while students requiring further dental attention may be referred for follow-up care.
In addition, oral health education seminars will be offered to kindergarten teachers to support the delivery of oral health messages and encourage children to develop healthy oral care habits and lifestyles from an early age, laying a strong foundation for lifelong oral health.
