In fiscal 2019, I applied to Kamakura City for a budget to provide free dental health checkups for pregnant women under the Maternal and Child Health Law, and this was realized.
In addition, as the Health Promotion Law in fiscal 2024 expands the scope of periodontal disease checkups to people in their 20s and 30s, we applied to the fiscal 2025 budget to allow people in their 20s and 30s to receive free periodontal disease checkups in fiscal 2025, and this was approved.
By preventing and treating periodontal disease, people of all ages can reduce the risk of various diseases throughout the body. I will work to promote dental checkups throughout my life.
