The Platform for Better Oral Health in Europe has gathered examples of best practice in oral health promotion and prevention from across Europe.

Together, the Platform for Better Oral Health seeks to find common solutions to improve oral health across the EU and to reduce inequalities both across Europe and within Member States. The Platform has therefore collected a series of best practices in order to:

• foster understanding of importance of oral health promotion and prevention among policymakers in the EU;
• demonstrate the cost effectiveness of prevention;
• raise awareness and disseminate good practices across Europe; and
• increase the Platform’s focus on providing concrete solutions to the unmet needs in access to quality dental care, and ultimately seeking to improve general health and overall quality of life.

The collection presented by the Platform includes 28 examples of oral health promotion and preventive programmes gathered from across Europe, which the Platform sees as possible solutions to Europe’s oral health problems.
