THE Australian Government has completed its consultations for the next 10-year National Oral Health Plan.
The feedback, which will be used to inform the roadmap, was gathered through stakeholder workshops around the country, consultations with rural and remote stakeholders, and engagement with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander consumers and organisations.
Feedback highlighted broad support for the draft framework, alongside calls for a stronger focus on health equity and cultural safety.
Other calls included a focus on prevention, emphasising child oral health and early intervention, and embedding Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander oral health priorities throughout the plan.
The new roadmap will be published once agreed by all health ministers.
