“There has been no real improvement in children's oral health for nearly 10 years and our first national report published in September 2024 called for urgent action. Since then there have been major new ambitious initiatives announced with real potential to address this worrying trend. To achieve this potential requires partnership working across national and local government with child education and health professionals engaging with parents and children. Universities are key to evaluating the impact of these initiatives on dental disease and child wellbeing.”
