CECDO

The Council of European Chief Dental Officers (CECDO) was founded in 1992. Chief Dental Officers are dental medicine consultants for national governments.

The Council is an international forum of exchange of information and data. Two meetings are organised every year, preferably in the country holding the EU Presidency. Following the meetings the conference proceedings are published. Information about CECDO and a database with key indicators for oral health can be viewed at www.cecdo.org.

Available publications by the CECDO:

• Dentistry in the EU and EEA: A Council of Chief Dental Officers’ Survey, 1996
