Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The aims of this Special Issue are to document the various models employed for the promotion of oral health in the pediatric population, with a focus on the early years. The publications will describe whether these health promotion efforts are geared towards specific populations, specific age groups, whether they are delivered as part of a public health effort or directed towards individual families. Any research that documents the effectiveness of those models will be welcome. Academics with novel research proposals in this area can submit their approved research proposals. Systematic reviews of published research in this area will also be considered. Lastly, commentaries on efforts to have local public health authorities adopt oral health promotion as a part of mother–child health promotion will also be considered.
Prof. Dr. Gajanan Kulkarni
