Cambodia Orientation Workshop of Provincial Focal Points on the Implementation of the National Action Plan for Oral Health 2023 2030

In 2024, Cambodia was one of only two countries in the region with a National Oral Health Action Plan. WHO supported the MOH to not only orient provincial focal points on the National Action Plan for Oral Health 2023-2030, but to operationalize the Plan at provincial-level. As a result, provincial focal points identified and conveyed recommendations to address the challenges to implementing the Plan at sub-national level such as ensuring that an essential package of infrastructure and skill for delivery of oral health services is available with an aim to reach all primary health care facilities; and are integrating oral health education into education curricula and including fluoride varnish in routine immunization programs, integrate oral health care services into social protection coverage.
