A more realistic photo

by Gavin Paterson | Mar 7, 2022 | in NHS Self-care leaflet

In my initial comments on the leaflet, I agreed with others that the photo is somewhat unrealistic, as it shows a perfect set of team.

What would I replace it with? I would go for a photo that avoids air brushed images or teeth that have been excessively whitened or capped. It should instead show a set adult teeth, that have been well looked after (but not significantly enhanced cosmetically) with an accompanying healthy set of gums. Perhaps a dental school could provide an example from its image library?

What is the ideal mode of delivery of this leaflet? (paper, online, transform into a video)

Are there more topics we should cover in future leaflets?

Should leaflets be age appropriate? If so, how?
