GLP-1 and Your Mouth: The Oral Side Effects to Know
Understand the oral side effects of GLP-1 medications and how dry mouth can increase cavity and enamel erosion risk.
Recognizing that 40% of rough sleepers endure severe mouth pain, Colgate partnered with Change Please in 2021, a social enterprise aiding the homeless, to address this critical issue.
As part of the partnership, two London buses were repurposed where Colgate offered, to people sleeping rough on London’s streets, access to dental care and oral health education as part of our commitment to providing healthy and confident smiles for everyone.
To highlight this important and unique project, TV presenter and actor Karim Zeroual has interviewed Raphael, mentor barista at Change Please Coffee, who became homeless when he was 17 years old.
Now available in the City of London and Hackney three days per week, with a mobile dental service on board to provide essential oral care to those who need it most, as well as oral health education. The buses are open:
Weekly on a Wednesday, 09:00 - 16:30, Queen Victoria Street, EC4V 4BT
Weekly on a Thursday, 09:00 - 17:00, Mare Street, E8 1 EA
Weekly on a Friday, 09:00 - 16:30, Gillett Square, N16 8AZ
