DescriptionThis event will provide an insight into how Primary Dental Care will be supported to develop the service needed to tackle poor oral health.
Additional information

We would like to invite dental teams to a local event to hear about the strategy being developed to support oral health in Knowsley.
Working together, Knowsley Council, Health Education England, the Local Dental Network, NHS England and Public Health England will support primary care practices to tackle the poor oral health of the population.

Working in partnership, we will support the development of resources and bespoke training for all dental teams in Knowsley. However, to do this we need your help. We need to understand what resources and training you would like to see delivered locally, either in-house or at local venues.
