Did you know...
Currently almost nine out of 10 hospital tooth extractions among infants aged up to five years old are down to preventable tooth decay.
•Tooth decay can cause problems with eating and sleeping. For those children waiting for tooth extractions in hospital in the North of England, 67% of parents reported their child had pain and 38% reported having sleepless nights2.
•Significant inequalities persist, with admission rates for tooth extraction in the most deprived communities nearly four times that of those living in the most affluent communities

Cost of living.
