Guidance
Who should take action?
Introduction
The guideline is for: local authorities, health and wellbeing boards, directors of public health, consultants in dental public health, commissioners and decision makers in local authorities and the NHS, school governors and head teachers.
It is also for front-line practitioners working more generally in health, social care and education. They could be working in local authorities, the NHS and other organisations in the public, private, voluntary and community sectors. In addition, it will be of interest to dentists, dental hygienists and other dental care professionals.
