    Abstract Background: Health is a matter of human rights and dental caries is the most common non-communicable disease (NCD) globally. Consequently, dental caries is a matter of human rights and its control, particularly prevention, must be a priority. Although largely preventable, this is too often neglected, both in the literature of human rights- and health law, and in dental research. The right to oral health has recently been acknowledged by the World Health Organization (WHO), but it is insufficiently clear what this right entails.
    Summary: This article introduces a right to health-based narrative in the context of dental caries. The right to health is stipulated in human rights treaties, including the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR) and the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC). States that are Parties to these treaties, which are virtually all States globally, are mandated to ensure the enjoyment of individuals' right to the highest attainable standard of health, including oral health.
    Key messages: Dental caries is a matter of human rights. States have binding obligations to address dental caries: they require the regulation of the healthcare system, i.e. the traditional focus on operative care, but also put the regulation of other risk factors on an equal footing, such as the regulation of the living environment and access to fluoride. A right to health-based approach to dental caries thus offers a comprehensive approach to dental caries control, particularly prevention.

    Abstract As also evidenced in the presentations in this Panel, there is ample evidence of the harmful effects of smoking and exposure to Environmental Tobacco Smoke in all phases of life and at all stages of the tobacco value chain. The harmful effects of production, sale and exposure to tobacco are not only a public health concern but also a matter of social justice in the way tobacco negatively impacts on the lives and wellbeing of individuals - smokers and non-smokers alike. This presentation will address the potential of a human rights-based approach to tobacco control. Human rights law offers an authoritative moral and legal framework to address injustices in relation to all aspects of tobacco, and is aimed at protecting the vulnerability of the individual. Specific attention will be paid to the rights and interests of children as vulnerable subjects when it comes to tobacco use and exposure. In addition, the presentation will encompass a discussion of the possibilities for creating accountability for human rights violations in relation to tobacco. It will pay attention to the tools and mechanisms that the human rights framework offers for addressing human rights violations by governments as well as the tobacco industry. Where possible, in this presentation links will be established between the scientific evidence presented in the other presentations in this panel and the potential of a human rights based approach. In relation to this and where possible, the presenter will be able to reflect on the opportunities that law more generally offers in curbing tobacco use. Funding statement The research underlying this paper was carried out as part of a three-year research project into children’s rights and tobacco control funded by the Dutch Cancer Society. The funding body did not play any role in drafting the study design, the data collection and analysis, nor in the writing or reviewing of this manuscript. The author reports no conflict of interest.

    Abstract The Framework Convention for Tobacco Control (FCTC) is undoubtedly the most efficient international instrument for tobacco control. Article 8 FCTC shapes many smoke-free policies worldwide and in doing so it is usually associated with smoke-free regulation in enclosed public spaces. Our paper highlights that the FCTC contains a sound foundation for smoke-free policies that stretch beyond enclosed public places, such as open public spaces and (quasi-)private spaces. We demonstrate, in particular, that such wide smoke-free regulation, which is gaining momentum around the globe, is versatile and compatible with human rights standards. As such, these expanded smoke-free policies contribute to a wider culture of smoking denormalisation that scales up FCTC's aspiration for tobacco control and subsequently to a smoke-free global society.
