South West

The South West has relatively poor oral health outcomes overall, with an average of 0.5% of the population of 0-19-year-olds presenting for hospital tooth extractions, just above the England average of 0.4%. However, there are a few local authorities performing worse than others in the region. North Devon (0.8%), Wiltshire (0.7%), Teignbridge (0.7%), Bristol (0.7%), Sedgemoor (0.7%), and North Somerset (0.7%) have the worst oral health outcomes compared to the regional average and England more widely.
