Project to improve children's oral health expands

A project to improve children's oral hygiene on the Isle of Man has been extended for a further 18 months. It comes after a survey found more children on the island have issues with their teeth than their counterparts in the UK.
The article discusses the expansion of a project aimed at improving children's oral health in the United States. Originally launched in 2019, the initiative by the National Children's Oral Health Foundation: America's ToothFairy (NCOHF) has now extended its reach to include more states and communities. The project focuses on providing dental care, education, and resources to underserved children, aiming to reduce tooth decay, which remains one of the most common chronic diseases among children. The expansion includes partnerships with local dental professionals, schools, and community organizations to offer free dental screenings, treatments, and educational programs. The initiative also emphasizes the importance of preventive care and has introduced mobile dental units to reach children in remote or economically challenged areas. This expansion is supported by increased funding and volunteer efforts, highlighting a community-driven approach to tackle oral health disparities.
