The Oral Health Observatory launched in 2014 by FDI World Dental Federation aims to provide a coordinated approach to international #oralhealth data collection This paper👇describes the methodology & the initial feasibility project in 12 countries sciencedirect.com/science/articl… Dr Rachael England


We outline the development of the SimSheffield model, created to provide a source of #oralhealth & sociodemographic data for #Sheffield & demonstrate how it can be used to assess social and spatial impacts of relevant national policies (e.g. sugar tax) rsaiconnect.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/rs…

Interestingly, we found that areas of the city paying more sugar tax (raw amount of extra tax paid) were not those with the highest tooth decay or deprivation scores 🤔 #dentistry SIPHER Consortium Systems Science in Public Health Alison Heppenstall Danny Dorling News Dimitris Ballas (dimitris-ballas.bsky.social) Tom Broomhead greg fell FFPH
