    Abstract Objectives: Adults who have learning disabilities are a vulnerable group, little is known about their oral health and how this affects their quality of life. The aims of this secondary analysis of data from the 2009 Adult Dental Health Survey (ADHS) were to describe the oral health status of adults with learning disabilities, determine if severity of learning disability is associated with oral health and identify some of the methodological complexities of working with this population. The survey yields the most recent representative data on the oral health of adults with learning disabilities in England and importantly, contains information about oral health related quality of life (OHRQoL).
    Basic research design: Secondary analysis of data from a supplemental survey of adults with learning disabilities collected alongside the 2009 ADHS.
    Participants: 607 participants with a diagnosed learning disability aged 18 years and over.
    Results: Adults with learning disabilities had similar levels of active dental caries, fewer natural teeth, and fewer fillings than comparable participants from the general population. Self-reported oral and general health were worse for adults with learning disabilities than the general population. Possible associations between the severity of learning disability and the numbers of decayed, missing or filled teeth were identified. However, large amounts of missing data limited the analysis.
    Conclusions: There are important questions relating to the accessibility of existing self-reported oral health questionnaires and the reliability of proxy-reported questions about OHRQoL that should be addressed to give a fuller picture of the oral health of adults with learning disabilities.

    Abstract A Wicked Problem is a problem that is impossible or difficult to solve partly because of its multi-component nature and its interconnection with other problems (Rittel & Webber, 1973). There are many Wicked Problems in the field of population oral health; tooth decay being one. Tooth decay is a function of biology (destruction of our tooth enamel); a function of our physical environment (availability, advertising and accessibility of sugar sweetened foods and drinks, availability of dental services); a function of our social environment (norms of oral hygiene and sugar consumption vary by socio-economic strata, country, and cultures); a function of us as individuals (dietary habits, visiting the dentist, oral health beliefs, toothbrushing, use of fluoride, dental anxiety, income); and a function of politics (our city, region and national policies on oral health education, tax on sugar sweetened drinks, water fluoridation, dental payment systems).

    Abstract Introduction: Despite substantial research and provision of dental care, significant morbidity remains for children's oral health. Guided by social practice theory (SPT), this research moves away from the often-ineffective focus on changing individual behavior to rethinking the centrality of the social world in promoting or undermining oral health outcomes. We define social practice as a routinized relational activity linking and integrating certain elements (competence, materials, and meanings) into the performance of a practice that is reproduced across time and space.
    Objective: To investigate oral health in preschool children in Perth, Western Australia, using social practice theory.
    Methods: With no definitive methodology for investigating SPT, we chose focused ethnography as a problem-focused, context-specific approach using mainly interviews to investigate participants' experience caring for their children's oral health. The focus of analysis was the practice of oral health care, not individual behavior, where themes identified from participants' transcripts were organized into categories of elements and performance.
    Results: Eleven parents, all of whom were married or partnered, were interviewed in 2021. Findings identified social practices relevant to oral health within parenting and family relations linked to routine daily activities, including shopping, consumption of food and beverages, and toothbrushing. Oral health literacy was reflected in integrating competence, materials, and meanings into performing oral health care, notably preferences for children to drink water over sugary beverages and information often being sourced from social media and mothers' groups rather than health providers.
    Conclusion: Focusing on social practices as the unit of analysis offers a more layered understanding of elements in young children's oral health care that can indicate where the problem may lie. Findings provide an opportunity to consider future research and policy directions in children's oral health.
    Knowledge transfer statement: Examining social practices related to young children's oral health care identifies parents/carers' knowledge about, for example, toothbrushing, the resources required, and why toothbrushing is important. Analyzing these separate elements can reveal both enablers and barriers to oral health care. This provides researchers, clinicians and policymakers an opportunity to focus on not changing individual behavior but understanding how social context impacts parents/carers' capacity to make optimum decisions around young children's oral health.

    Abstract Objectives: Toothwear may impact on an individual's everyday life, yet there is little research investigating the association between toothwear and oral health related quality of life (OHRQoL). The aim of the present study was to investigate the association between toothwear and OHRQoL in adults in the United Kingdom.
    Basic research design: This study involved secondary analysis of data from 5187 participants with toothwear in the Adult Dental Health Survey conducted in 2009. Toothwear was assessed using Smith and Knight criteria and the Basic Erosive Wear Index and classified as mild, moderate and severe.
    Main outcome measures: Correlation analyses were carried out between OHIP-14 total scores and toothwear type. Regression analyses investigated the association between toothwear and OHRQoL adjusting for demographic variables.
    Results: There was a significant association between toothwear and OHRQoL, with more severe toothwear associated with greater oral health impact on daily life. The association between erosive toothwear and OHRQoL was significant for moderate and severe severities only. The adjusted linear regression model identified that toothwear accounted for 0.02% of the variance in total OHIP-14 scores. Females, younger individuals and less deprived individuals showed a greater association between toothwear and OHRQoL.
    Conclusions: In this general population sample, there was a small significant association between toothwear and OHRQoL impacts. However, the association was only significant for more severe categories of toothwear.

    Abstract This article analyses the underrepresentation of racialised minorities across the three stages of the dental workforce pipeline through the critical lens of power. The reformist view of power was used, which focuses on concealment caused by systemic biases. We observed adequate representation of racialised minorities in the first two stages of the pipeline; entry to dental schools and completion of dental education. However, the categorisation of diverse groups into a single 'BAME' category conceals the underrepresentation of Black people and those who experience intersectional forms of discrimination rooted in race, gender and class. We observed all racialised minorities to be underrepresented in the third stage of the pipeline; career development and progression. The data suggest that institutional processes are more likely to recruit and promote White1 people, and racialised minorities are more likely to be exposed to bullying and inequitable disciplinary processes. Consistently across dental institutions, as the level of seniority increases, the representation of racialised minorities decreases. Thus, senior decision-making and agenda-setting spaces in UK dentistry are overwhelmingly White. Multiple actions are suggested; including collation of comprehensive, inclusive data, widening participation and representation initiatives to help re-distribute the power dynamics towards racialised minorities and ensure equality of representation across the dental pipeline, including in senior spaces. We hope this will work towards putting some of the systemic problems that we see in dentistry; such as differential staff and student experiences, inequitable recruitment, promotions and disciplinary proceedings, and colonial dental curricula and research on the institutional agenda.

    Abstract Systems science methods offer an alternative way to approach problems within Dental Public Health by encouraging the consideration of the wider systems and structures in which oral health problems exist. Through such an approach, and consideration of interacting systems over multiple hierarchical levels, it may be possible to better understand the complexity associated with oral health related outcomes, and to improve theoretical understanding of these relationships. Simulation methods associated with systems science can also be used to help model and capture these real-world problems, and to help test the interactions associated with different elements of a system. The aim of this review is to summarise the concepts behind systems science approaches, and what they can offer the field of Dental Public Health. This will include an overview of the way systems science can approach problems associated with complexity, and the benefits these approaches can have. The main methods associated with the field will then be reviewed, along with examples of their application. This paper will then outline some of the main implications, both conceptual and methodological, that adopting systems science methods may have for Dental Public Health. Finally, the challenges associated with systems science will also be presented. It is hoped that this review will highlight the benefits of systems thinking, and how it can add to our conceptual knowledge of the contexts in which complex health problems are embedded.
