Curaprox, the global leader in oral health prevention, and the non-profit organisation Water for Water today announced a five-year partnership under the shared guiding theme of Health & Happiness. Built on a shared belief that health begins with prevention, education, access, and everyday actions, the collaboration connects oral health prevention with long-term access to clean water, sanitation and hygiene — supporting healthier, more resilient communities.
Both organisations work where health truly starts — not in treatment rooms, but in daily life. Curaprox empowers people worldwide to take care of their oral health through prevention and selfcare, while Water for Water leads community-based WASH programs in Zambia and Mozambique, supporting long-term access to clean water, sanitation and hygiene. “Overall health begins in the mouth, but it does not end there,” says Curaprox. “Access to clean water and hygiene is a fundamental prerequisite for health, dignity and wellbeing. This partnership reflects our belief that prevention and empowerment are key drivers of lasting impact.”
Water for Water combines professional expertise with innovative, community-based approaches to help ensure safe and secure access to water — today and for generations to come. In Zambia and Mozambique, its WASH programs strengthen health, education and resilience by focusing on longterm infrastructure, local ownership and hygiene education.
Under Health & Happiness, the partnership will support Water for Water’s core WASH initiatives while raising awareness of the close connection between water, hygiene and oral health. As part of the collaboration, Curaprox will also explore a limited, learning-oriented pilot in Maputo to assess how oral health education could complement existing WASH activities. Any further steps will be guided by impact and experience gained on the ground.
Customers turn everyday self-care into global wellbeing
For Curaprox customers, the partnership is closely linked to the annual Health & Happiness Special Edition toothbrushes. With every Special Edition sold, Curaprox makes a fixed contribution to support improved access to clean water and hygiene — turning a daily brushing ritual into a shared commitment to global wellbeing.
The first 2026 Health & Happiness Special Edition translates the partnership’s spirit into a vibrant, eye-catching design — bright, playful and full of energy. Created to celebrate everyday self-care, it helps carry the message of Health & Happiness into daily routines.
“This partnership is not about short-term actions,” both partners emphasise. “It is about strengthening the foundations of health — brush by brush, drop by drop — and creating conditions that enable healthier, happier lives over the long term.”
