A new study, published in JDR Clinical & Translational Research and based on data from 4,400 children, has found a link between tooth loss and bullying among adolescents. Senior author of the study, Associate Professor Ankur Singh from the University of Sydney, highlights the psychological effects of tooth decay. Based on official figures showing that 24 per cent of children suffer from decay in their adult teeth, the study is calling for stronger government support to provide free dental care for children and adolescents.
