Une loi sur l'exercice de la chirurgie dentaire est en passe d'être votée à l'Assemblée nationale sans l'amendement de l'ordre national des chirurgiens-dentistes du Sénégal. Seulement, l'ordre a renseigné n'avoir pas pu mettre la main dans ce document qui serait modifié et qui n'a pas fait l'objet d'amendement de leur part, malgré plusieurs correspondances adressées au ministère de tutelle. En point de presse hier, jeudi 17 novembre à Dakar, l'ordre a dénoncé cet état de fait et se démarque de ce projet qui enfoncerait l'exercice de cette profession.

. It is estimated that oral diseases affect nearly 3.5 billion people.
. Untreated dental caries (tooth decay) in permanent teeth is the most common health condition according to the Global Burden of Disease 2019.
. Treatment for oral health conditions is expensive and usually not part of universal health coverage (UHC).
. Most low- and middle-income countries are unable to provide services to prevent and treat oral health conditions..
. Oral diseases are caused by a range of modifiable risk factors, including sugar consumption, tobacco use, alcohol use and poor hygiene, and their underlying social and commercial determinants.
