The APPG acts as a forum for dental and oral health issues in Parliament, works to raise the profile of dentistry, highlighting the views of patients and the profession, and campaigns to improve oral health and the quality of dental services.

Note: All-Party Parliamentary Groups (APPGs) are informal, cross-party groups formed by MPs and Members of the House of Lords who share a common interest in a particular policy area, region or country. APPGs have no official status within Parliament.
