Toothbrushing initiative in primary schools aims to tackle tooth decay

In order to remember to keep oral health on the agenda, Members of the London Assembly Health Committee visited Brentfield Primary School in West London, to observe supervised toothbrushing – an initiative to reduce tooth decay in young children.
