Abstract

Children's oral health, and the number of children attending for dental treatment under general anaesthesia continue to be in the spotlight of the dental press. But are all children across the UK given the same opportunities to access comprehensive dental care under general anaesthesia? This article gives details of a recent evaluation of dental general anaesthetic services currently provided in the UK. It outlines the current picture of services, discusses the challenges and the implications of the results, and makes suggestions to help improve the regional inequalities shown by the evaluation.
