Abstract

The state of the teeth of the population of the U.K. presents an appalling picture, with more than 99% of us suffering or having suffered from dental caries (decay) and a repair bill of more than £140 million per annum in England alone. By the age of 15 on average more than one‐third of the permanent teeth of every child are either decayed, missing or filled as a consequence of dental caries.
