A narrative presents output from contact tracing of all cases and includes themes identified during contact tracing that led to transmission within a dental setting. A case study illustrates impact of transmission.Results: 752 cases are included. No evidence of staff to patient transmission or vice versa was found in this study. Staff to staff transmission occurred in non-clinical areas contributing to 33% of total staff cases with the remainder assessed to result from community transmission.Conclusion: Transmission of COVID-19 in a dental setting, in the context of this study, appears to be confined to non-clinical areas with the majority of staff cases resulting from community transmission. Future pandemic plans should include tools to aid with implementation of guidance in non-clinical areas.","PeriodicalId":10647,"journal":{"name":"Community dental health","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-02-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139905166","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A working group drawing on external expertise, developed a conceptual workforce model which informed the mathematical modelling, taking a Markovian approach. The latter enabled the consideration of possible scenarios relating to workforce development. It involved exploration of capacity within each career stage in DPH across a time horizon of 15 years. Workforce capacity requirements were calculated, informed by past principles.Results: Currently an estimated 100 whole time equivalent (WTE) specialists are required to provide a realistic basic capacity nationally for DPH across the UK given the range of organisations, population growth, complexity and diversity of specialty roles. In February 2022 the specialty had 53.55 WTE academic/service consultants, thus a significant gap. The modelling evidence suggests a reduction in DPH specialist capacity towards a steady state in line with the current rate of training, recruitment and retention. The scenario involving increasing training numbers and drawing on other sources of public health trained dentists whilst retaining expertise within DPH has the potential to build workforce capacity.Conclusions: Current capacity is below basic requirements and approaching 'steady state'. Retention and innovative capacity building are required to secure and safeguard the provision of specialist DPH services to meet the needs of the UK health and care systems.","PeriodicalId":10647,"journal":{"name":"Community dental health","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41182232","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The COVID-19 pandemic reduced the availability of dental appointments, including for LAC. This initiative piloted the inclusion of a dental pathway into the existing LAC care pathway in Buckinghamshire. The key principle was providing oral health messaging around maintaining good oral health and preventing disease in these children by training those involved with their care.Methods: A working group was convened, which included dental public health, clinical and training expertise. A care pathway was developed with resources drawn from existing programmes including mini Mouth Care Matters (mMCM). The care pathways were designed to identify children who needed care urgently due to pain or discomfort, signpost them to the relevant/most appropriate providers and provide oral health improvement advice for everyone. Local partners were engaged to ensure that the processes and training were appropriate. A pilot training session was then carried out for a range of staff engaged in the care of LAC within Buckinghamshire.Results: The pilot dental pathway, launched in March 2022, initiative was welcomed by all stakeholders, including dental commissioners. The pilot training session received positive feedback from participants, with requests for more sessions. Training sessions were subsequently translated into video sessions, accessible when needed, for new staff or as refresher sessions.Conclusion: There are opportunities to reduce future inequalities for these children by inculcating positive behaviours early in their care journey. This will reduce their need for care. Identifying and implementing the most appropriate initiatives requires collaboration and commitment from all stakeholders.","PeriodicalId":10647,"journal":{"name":"Community dental health","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10161815","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Analysis considered sociodemographic characteristics such as sex, age, and years of education. The prevalence of tooth loss was determined using the Decayed, Missing and Filled teeth (DMFT) index. Negative binomial regression was used to estimate rate ratio (RR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs), using the presence of lost teeth as an outcome.Results: Most (62.4%) participants had lost at least one tooth, of whom 60.3% had a medium level of marginalization, 28.8% a high level, and 10.9% a very high level. More adults who lived in high or very high marginalization communities had lost teeth [RR=1.19 (95% CI 1.08 - 1.30)] than those living in communities with a medium level of marginalization.

However, the association between oral frailty and pre-frailty in elderly individuals remains unclear. This cross-sectional study aimed to clarify the characteristics and risk factors of pre-frailty in elderly individuals with oral frailty.Methods: A total of 377 elderly individuals participated. Oral examinations comprised simple and non-invasive measures of chewing function, self-reported swallowing function, and oral moisture. The frailty screening index was used to assess frailty phenotypes.Results: The overall prevalence of pre-frailty was 63.1%, after excluding 40 frail and 99 robust individuals. The mean age of the pre-frail participants was 76.6 ± 5.8 years; 70.6% were women. 10.5% of the pre-frail elderly participants had oral frailty. In multivariate analysis diabetes mellitus, history of cancer, denture wearing, and malnutrition were independently associated with oral frailty among pre-frail elderly individuals (adjusted odds ratio (OR) 3.8, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.06-13.54; OR 4.5, CI 1.32-15.36; OR 8.8, CI 1.76-43.78; and OR 3.6, CI 1.30-9.67; respectively).Conclusions: The prevalence of oral frailty was low among community-dwelling pre-frail elderly individuals.
