Background • Over 16 million children suffer from untreated tooth decay • Disproportionately affects children, low income families and minorities • An unhealthy mouth can be linked to obesity, diabetes and heart disease • It impacts a child’s ability to learn, develop self esteem and speak properly • However, many parents lack information about oral health
Target • Parents/caregivers of children ages 0-12 • Emphasis on low income and minority (Hispanic/African American) parents and caregivers
Objective • Improve children’s oral health by • Educating parents and caregivers about the importance of a healthy mouth • Motivating them to take action to prevent tooth decay
Campaign Development Process • Exploratory Phase • Review of secondary research • Consultation with expert panel (comprised of academic researchers and dentists) to identify communication and messaging priorities • Primary research with target audience • Focus groups and IDIs • Quantitative survey • Strategy developed and includes input from: • Partnership for Health Mouths, Healthy Lives • Ad Council Campaign Review Committee

Input from: • Partnership for Healthy Mouths, Healthy Lives • Expert panel • Ad Council Campaign Review Committee • Qualitative testing of 2 campaigns • Production of approved campaign • Refined based on qualitative learning • Campaign Launch/Distribution • Continued promotion of campaign, monitoring and evaluation
Key Consumer Insights from Research • Parents understand good oral care is important, but they admit that it’s a chore they let slide • They rarely monitor how well, how long and how often their children care for their teeth. • They don’t understand the severe consequences that can result in poor oral care overtime.
Purpose of Advertising • Elevate the importance of simple behaviors (ex. brushing teeth) and connect parents to deeper resources (through fulfillment and partnerships)
Strategic Ideas • If your kids don’t brush their teeth twice a day, for 2 minutes, it will lead to dental disease, pain and potential tooth loss. • If you monitor your kid’s brushing frequency and habits, you can be instrumental in saving them from pain down the road and ensure a healthier oral future.
