Children's oral health in Ireland 2001:preliminary results. A North South survey
AuthorH. Whelton;D. Crowley;D. O'Mullane;M. Cronin;V. Kelleher
AbstractThis report presents the results of the first contemporaneous North South study of the oral health of children and adolescents on the island of Ireland. The last National Survey of Children’s Oral Health in the Republic of Ireland was carried out in 1984. The present study describes the oral health experience of children and adolescents in Ireland today. The results are of interest to the public, to policymakers and to service providers and will be of assistance in the evaluation of current oral health services and the planning of services for the next decade. One of the primary aims of the study was to explore the relationship between disadvantage and oral health, using medical card ownership in ROI and low income benefit in NI.
