Synopsis
Oral diseases such as tooth decay, gum disease and mouth cancers affect an estimated 3.5bn people globally, disproportionately affecting poorer and marginalised groups. The 香港六合彩中特网 Dental Public Health Group (DPHG) has led research showing this oral health gap shares the same underlying drivers as inequalities in other noncommunicable diseases such as cancer and heart disease. Their findings have influenced policy to reduce these oral health inequalities in the UK and globally.
