Engagement with the Community

As a proud member of the Port Talbot community, we actively engage in initiatives that promote oral health awareness and education. In the past, we collaborated with Aberavon RFC to provide oral health workshops in local primary schools, teaching children valuable first aid techniques for their teeth in case of sports injuries.
