Himalaya Wellness Highlights Gum Health in New Awareness Campaign
Campaign developed by Social Panga returns for its second edition on Gum Health Day Himalaya Wellness Company has launched the second phase of its gum health initiative, #ItStartsWithGums, timed with Gum Health Day. Developed in partnership with creative agency Social Panga, the campaign takes a light-hearted approach to emphasize the importance of healthy gums as the foundation for strong oral hygiene – a concept deeply rooted in Ayurvedic principles. The latest campaign features two engaging digital films titled “SOS” and “Breath-checker”. These videos use AI-driven dialogues to spotlight everyday gum issues like bleeding and bad breath, reinforcing the message that lasting oral health begins with taking care of your gums. The multi-platform campaign is being deployed across YouTube, Facebook, and other digital channels. It will also include high-impact displays at key transit locations and influencer-driven content featuring oral health experts. “Healthy gums are the foundation of oral health, yet they’re often overlooked,” said Ragini Hariharan, Marketing Director for Personal Care and Hygiene at Himalaya Wellness Company. “With the second edition of #ItStartsWithGums, we aim to not only raise awareness but inspire behavior change. Our goal is to empower consumers to take simple, preventive steps that can make a long-term impact – because a healthy smile starts with healthy gums.” Gum disease often goes undetected, making education around preventive care crucial. Himalaya is using the campaign to promote its Ayurveda Gum Care Toothpaste, formulated with 13 Ayurvedic herbs inspired by Danta Swasthyapractices. According to Ponnappa K.B, Brand Manager of Himalaya’s Consumer Products Division, the product helps fight plaque, eliminates harmful bacteria, and strengthens gum tissue for better oral protection. Sunitha Natarajan, Director of Digital Strategy at Social Panga, commented on the creative approach: “Our campaign brings gum health into the digital age, blending AI-led storytelling with traditional wisdom. It’s about making oral care relatable and top-of-mind, showing people that truly effective dental care begins with the gums.” With a combination of modern tech, influencer outreach, and traditional Ayurvedic messaging, Himalaya’s campaign is driving home a powerful message: when it comes to oral health, #ItStartsWithGums.
