India needs dental health leadership - says Prof Bedi

The global campaign aims to promote proper use of fluoride toothpaste together with awareness campaign on proper dietary habits "to ensure that children born in 2026 do not have any tooth caries."

"By September 2005, we finished recruitment of 1,000 young dentists from India, raising their number to five percent of the dental workforce in the NHS. Now we have increased the provision for intake of 25 percent more dental students for training," he said

Professor Raman Bedi is now busy in India - more fluoride for them?
Why didn't they train 1000 of our own people insteaad of taking away needed dentists from India?
