My latest paper “Healthy ageing and oral health: priority, policy and public health” published open access today in BDJOpen. This is the paper that’s been brewing in my brain for the last decade. Global ageing, oral health and how the WHO approach applies for oral health.

A patient’s age shouldn’t determine their access to treatment or the standard of care they receive - we worked with GMC and others on why ageism in healthcare must be challenged- gmc-uk.org/professional-s…
