Description

Local Authorities have a statutory duty to provide or commission oral health improvement
programmes to improve the health of the local population, to the extent they consider
appropriate. Oral diseases, including the most common oral health conditions - tooth decay
and gum disease- are largely preventable. Despite this, the impact of poor oral health locally,
nationally and globally is huge. In the UK context, treatment of oral health conditions cost
the NHS over £3 billion per year but the cost to society is even greater.
Among older adults in residential care, poor oral hygiene can lead to aspirated pneumonia
and malnutrition and dehydration, which in turn can lead to urinary tract infection. It vital that
Oldham has a dedicated provision in place to support vulnerable older adults.
