The launch of the new Starting Well scheme has been welcomed by the British Society of Paediatric Dentistry (BSPD) as an important step in trying to reduce oral health inequalities in children.
Starting Well is to operate in 13 areas of England where children’s oral health is worst. Dental practices will, among other initiatives, hold open days and family events to improve access for young children.
The first launch event took place in Greater Manchester in September at the AJ Bell stadium and was well attended by dental teams as well as a range of healthcare professionals. Greater Manchester is home to four of the Starting Well areas: Salford, Rochdale, Oldham and Bolton.
