Improving oral health, particularly of children, is a priority. Nationally, NHS England and the Department are testing new ways of providing dental care focussed on preventing future disease. NHS England also intends to roll out a scheme across the West Midlands to support dentists to intervene early where children’s oral health is at risk.
