Scots children 'have worst teeth'
Children in Scotland have the worst dental health in the UK, a study has found.
The British Association for the Study of Community Dentistry said almost half of all five-year-olds had decayed, filled or missing teeth.
However the results showed a slight improvement on previous studies.
Dentists blamed the figures on poor living standards and diets as well as parents failing to register their children with a dentist.
