About this listen

By the age of 8, one in three children show signs of tooth decay, and this can lead to broader health complications. So, what should paediatricians look out for?

Dr Greig Taylor, a paediatric dentist and clinical lecturer, joins Emma and the team to explore the state of children’s oral health. They delve into the causes of dental decay and preventative measures. And they highlight the particular needs of immunocompromised children and why children with diabetes face a heightened risk of oral infections.

Dr Greig Taylor is a Clinical Lecturer in Paediatric Dentistry at Newcastle University and a Specialist Paediatric Dentist at Newcastle-upon-Tyne Hospitals Trust.

Featuring: Dr Greig Taylor, Dr Emma Lim and Dr Christo Tsilifis
