Oral Health. Dental health of children especially under 5 years is improving. However there has been dislocation in the availability of results from the programme across Scotland. No national comparative data is available for the proportion of 5 year olds free from dental caries nor the monitoring of 12 year olds. The upward trend in the 3-5 year old registration figure is encouraging and, currently at 73.6% for the first two quarters of 2008/9 compared to 65.1% in 2007/8, is expected to reach the 2010/11 target of 80%. These data sets are below national trends for this age group at 80.3% for the first two quarters of 2008/9 and 73.6% in 2007/8 The importance is recognised of linking with public health initiatives to ensure the most vulnerable children are accessing care.

Oral Health. The development of a new centre will support delivery of the National Oral health Improvement Strategy for Priority Groups which are, in addition to children, adults vulnerable to poor health: frail older people and those with special care needs and homeless people. ‘Caring for Smiles’ is planned and partly implemented to date. Where not already in place, actions will include participation in the other ‘smile’ programmes. There is a structured plan in place for the homeless and links in place with the homeless partnership. There is also a focus on antenatal mothers, encouraging registration with dental practice and participation in the Childsmile programme. There are Dental Health Support Workers, based between the local health centres, who work mainly work for Childsmile but also with priority groups. The local GDP is enrolled in the Childsmile programme. At March 2012 the percentage of children registered with a dentist was: (Old boundaries) West Glasgow CHCP – 87% North Glasgow CHCP – 89.2% Scotland – 87.5% 3 year olds (2011) North Glasgow – 70.5% (No national statistics) Primary 1s (2010) North Glasgow – 50.46% Scotland – 64% Primary 7s (2011) North Glasgow – 54% Scotland – 69.4% There is one independent, NHS committed, general dental practice in the current Woodside health centre with 4 dentists and 4 dental surgeries. There is adequate GDP provision in the area and little incentive for them to relocate as they would not qualify for funding support (Scottish dental access initiative). Many will have invested in their properties recently to meet decontamination requirements. Community & Salaried Dental Services are based in other nearby health centres at Maryhill (to the north-west) and Possilpark (to the north east). In particular, the domiciliary care team for the wider area is based at Maryhill. Care/support for the priority groups will be provided locally as described above. In addition to maintaining the existing provision, a new facility would provide the potential to introduce a dedicated Childsmile (dental education) room, decorated and equipped to encourage children to look after their teeth. Dental Facilities within the new centre would be designed to improve access for the disabled. It would include the planned number of surgeries, administrative space, waiting and reception, designed and built in line with the design statement prepared for this facility.

Oral Health. Payment for orthodontic treatment beyond an examination (service code 01900) requires that the patient: • has excellent oral health, and • is free of dental caries. Payment for service code 01910 (consultation, treatment plan and full records) may not be processed for cases where the oral health is not considered excellent. In borderline cases where the excellence of the oral health is in question, please complete an examination and take 2 to 3 pictures (service code 01900). Submit the pictures with a letter requesting approval to proceed. The Saskatchewan Ministry of Health will assess the oral hygiene and advise if full records should be submitted. If the pictures fail to show excellent oral health, consideration for orthodontic treatment will be delayed until evidence is provided that demonstrates the requirements have been achieved. Pictures submitted as part of the orthodontic records must be of excellent diagnostic quality and clearly show all areas of the mouth to assist with assessment.
