I recently met the founder of Ragazze in gamba, the largest network of female slow walkers and hikers in Italy – by Francesca Lombardo.

Considering we have been in semi-total lockdown for a year, we have limited our visits to dentists to the bare minimum so mouth health has now been linked to general health and oral care will be high on the agenda of most people in 2021. The speakers also highlighted simple tips on how to take care of our teeth, which I’m sharing here.
