Oral health of 5-year-old children p

This profile describes the oral health of 5-year- rofile olds living in Derbyshire. It uses data from the National Dental Epidemiology Programme 2019 survey of 5-year-old children1.

The profile is designed to help local government and health services improve the oral health and wellbeing of children and tackle

health inequalities.

In Derbyshire 1,302 5-year-olds (approximately 53.9% of those sampled) were examined at school by trained and calibrated examiners using the national standard method2.

Summary

In Derbyshire average levels of dental decay are lower than the average for England, however, within Derbyshire there are areas where there are higher than average levels of experience of dental decay. At lower-tier local authority level, children living in Chesterfield have the highest levels of experience of dental decay. Within the electoral divisions, the highest levels of experience of dental decay are in Staveley.

Future surveys could be commissioned to provide larger samples to facilitate local analysis. Commissioning High Quality Information to Support Oral Health Improvement: A toolkit about dental epidemiology for local authorities, commissioners and partners is available to support the commissioning of oral health surveys4.
