- First tooth, first visit, zero cavities: a practical approach to the infant oral health visit. [Journal Article]
- The IDA adopted a formal policy on children's oral health in 2011. There is increasing evidence to support early dental visits for children.

- A retrospective investigation of the oral health records of a cohort of preschool children who received extractions under general anaesthesia including cost analysis of treatment. [Journal Article]
- CONCLUSIONS: A considerable number of preschool children require extractions under DGA due to dental caries. The results of this study indicate that such children progress to adolescence with poor oral health, as evidenced by the need for further restorations, extractions and repeat DGA. The average cost of DGA was E819 per child. This figure has been shown to be as much as eight times the cost of a preventive/oral health promotion prograrnme operating within a similar cohort. An integrated preventive programme targeting preschool-aged children should be considered in attempting to manage the hicih levels of dental caries within this age group.
