The Government’s Green Paper: ‘Advancing our health: prevention in the 2020s’, published in July 2019, committed to consulting this year on a national school toothbrushing scheme in more pre-school settings and primary schools in England.

The intention is to begin a public consultation on a national school toothbrushing scheme, later this year.
