The Deadly teeth health promotion initiative, developed by the Winda-Mara Aboriginal Corporation and supported by the Portland District Health, contains three tip cards for families promoting good oral health for children aged up to 7 years. The Eat well tip card promotes healthy eating behaviours because 'deadly teeth need good foods'. The Drink well tip card promotes drinking of tap water and avoidance of sugary drinks. The Clean well tip card encourages regular tooth-brushing.
