Last day to have your say about IOM dental services

Mon, 08 Nov 2010

If you knew that more than half of five year olds on the Isle of Man suffer from tooth decay, would you feel compelled to have your say about dental services on the Island?

Well that worrying statistic inspired the Department for Health to start a public consultation on 21st of September and the closing date for responses is today.

Although the main aim of the strategy is to improve oral health in children, other priorities include shifting the emphasis from treatment to prevention and providing care for vulnerable groups.

To have you say on this the last day of the consultation call 685138 or email dh@gov.im
