1 in 5 five-year-olds have tooth decay in the UK. That’s why we’re launching our supervised toothbrushing scheme today. Here’s how we’re putting an end to childhood tooth decay 👇

One of the most evidenced-based and cost-effective public health programmes in the toolbox of reducing health inequalities. Great to see this manifesto pledge being implemented

We're keeping our promise to deliver supervised toothbrushing to young children across England. We'll provide 23 million free toothbrushes & toothpastes through our partnership with Colgate-Palmolive to reach up to 600,000 children yearly. We’ll get England smiling again 👇🏻

1 in 3 five-year-olds in the most deprived areas have experience of tooth decay. That's why we're introducing supervised toothbrushing at schools and nurseries. Every £1 we invest will save the NHS £3 - and up to 600,000 children each year will benefit.

This is the first step to address the crisis in children’s oral health. It is clinically informed and evidence-based. Thank you to all at team Department of Health and Social Care and Colgate UK who brought this to fruition. I cannot wait to see what we can achieve together Stephen Kinnock Wes Streeting 🦷

Great to hear Stephen Kinnock focus on children’s oral health at #BDIADentalShowcase. BSPD welcomes targeted supervised toothbrushing intervention. Stephen Kinnock said: “It’s a common sense, evidence-based” plan. He also talked about the sugary drinks levy & the govt’s support for CWF.
