This guidance is issued jointly by the Department of Health and Social Care, the Welsh Government, the Department of Health Northern Ireland, Public Health England, NHS England and NHS Improvement and with the support of the British Association for the Study of Community Dentistry.
Delivering Better Oral Health (DBOH) has been developed with the support of the 4 UK Chief Dental Officers.
Whilst this guidance seeks to ensure a consistent UK wide approach to the prevention of oral diseases, some differences in operational delivery and organisational responsibilities may apply in Wales, Northern Ireland and England. In Scotland the guidance will be used to inform oral health improvement policy.
This version of DBOH was developed with the support of Cochrane Oral Health and the Scottish Dental Clinical Effectiveness Programme (SDCEP). The methodology was based on that of SDCEP with Cochrane Oral Health appraising the evidence underpinning each recommendation.
