BDA calls for ‘dental revolution’ in care homes
The BDA has welcomed a new report from the CQC on the parlous state of plans, policies and provision for oral health in care homes; publishing its own analysis of official figures indicating funding is currently supporting access for as little as one in a hundred of those who, due to limited mobility, may require access to domiciliary services. They said that nothing short of a revolution in the approach to dentistry in residential homes is needed.
