First day of teaching for MDPH class of 2021/22 - a chilly (well ventilated) room, all masked up, a few IT issues with hybrid teaching but a very warm Sheffield welcome! Lovely to meet everyone 😁 @DPHSheffield @ShefDentistry

Today is #WorldSmileDay. @EUOralHealth is convinced that having the confidence to smile, eat and enjoy life is a fundamental right for every European citizen and that this can only be achieved by ensuring effective consideration of oral health in all policies.

New survey by @Actiononsugar @actiononsalt for @foodfoundation Broken Plate highlights 92% of cereals marketed towards children still contain high or medium levels of sugar, with only two cereals ticking all the boxes for a healthy choice #BrokenPlate2021

[Ross Perry @oliverrossperry]

Invasive oral healthcare for the elderly is too often traumatic (for everyone) and too futile. The endpoint should not be to chase disease but rather to resolve the underlying problem - oral dysbiosis. With #Prevora, this can be readily achieved, without trauma & for long periods
