Further inequalities

This comes as statistics show tooth decay inequalities among the country’s children have increased.

A new report by Public Health England (PHE) reveals discrepancies in the prevalence of tooth decay among five-year-olds in England.

It concludes that there are inequalities in oral health across all stages of the life course.

Additionally, the report found that there were barriers to NHS care at an individual, societal and policy level. These can be common across various vulnerable groups or specific to one group.

Ways the report suggests obstacles could be overcome include:

  • Provision of appropriate training to both service users and care providers
  • Policies to ensure dental services meet the needs of vulnerable people
  • Additionally, the use of appropriate skill mix to deliver services.
