TEETH TEAM LIMITED {A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES (CONTINUED) Achievement and Perforniao¢e During the year, the Trustees spent £82:240 in pursuit of the aims of the charity s obje¢lives and activi(ies. This is an increase of 8.4 % compared to the previou5 )'ear. Over the year. Ive have concentrated on areas of Hull. the Ea# Riding. South Humber, North Yorkshire, and areas of social deprivation around Nottingham. This is based on our ability to reach ihese areas and relationships alr¢ady ¢stablish¢d with volunteer dentists based in dental prdctices in those areas. Through our core prograinme, we have worked hard to en5urc thal ive reach as many children as possible in these locations and over th¢ pasl 12 tnonihs have ivorked ivith nineteen schools in total, eleven in Hull, three in Nottinghatn. four in North Yorkshi and one sch¢M)l in South Humber. We have worked with 3840 children. all of whotll have received toothbrushes and toothpaste tl)roughout the year and have underoone daily supervised ioothbrushing ivithin school. We have distributed 9,424 toothbrushes and 2,712 tubes of tlK)thpaste. In addition, all the children have re¢¢iv¢d dental exainiiiations this year by volunteer dentists equating to 6,158 denial asscssmcnts And 4,421 fluoride varnisli applications to protect their teeth. We aim for tsvo dental assessments and application5 of fluorid¢ varnish per child per year but thcrc arc many variables affecting this, such as medical history reasons, consent not issued by parents, sensory needs, school absence and refusal. Foiindation Dentists have continued to suptK)rt the Teeth Team programmc and the contributed volunteer time given througli the Deaneries to Teeth Team. Other dental practices in Hull and oiher areas ivhere Teeth Team operated had given 38 days completely free of cliarge lo Teeih Team at a volu¢ of £60,800. Tivo dentists per day. (British Guild Rate @ £800.00 a day per Dentist) Of the 3,840 ¢hildren examined, in total, there M'ere 2,649 decayed teeth. This is tooth d¢cay that will affect other teeth and the future of developing tecth and is a shocking statistic in children so young. This is a reduction on previous years and evidence that our ivork is having a positive iinpact. At the titne of each schoo15 last assessmeni, Ihere ivere 678 children requiring dental trcatmeni and 263 needing urgeiit treatment. We clas5 four or more decayed i¢¢ih as urgent. This is a 16.3Q/o drop on tl)e previous year: and again, is evidence thai ive are having a positive impact on children's oral liealth. However, it does slill mean that 17.60/0 of the children seen b), I'olunteer dentists needed treatment such as fillings and tooth extractions. Within those numbers, 6.80/• ivere in urgent need, tlleaning 263 children ivill have been experiencing acut¢ pain and suffering that ivas left unchecked and without tlie intervention of the Teeth Team programme, would only ever get ivorse. Sadly, to dale: not All the 678 children who needed treatment have acces5cd th¢ dental treatment they urgently need. Whilst it is positive for those children that hai'e noii, re¢eiw¢d iiea(ment and il)ey are no longer experiencing pain and suffering. it does mean that despite letters being issued to parents and carers and folloiv up letters. some children have still noi bttn tsken to a dental surgery, for treatmenl even thougli we match them with local dentist5 to facilitaie this.
TEETH TEAM LIMITED {A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES (CONTINUED) After three dental assessments in sch(K)l& if parents Still fail to take their child to a local dentist surgery, Ive ivork ivith the schools to raise this as a safcguarding issue and the school arranges to call the parents in for a disCUS5ion. This is because, these children ii'ill be experiencing pain and ii'ithout trealm¢nt, could eventually need full tooth extraction which ledves them only able to eat soft foods until adult teeth come through. li also m¢afts that as baby teeth set the channel for adult teeth: as adult teeth Come through. they 'ill go through a 'teething' proce5S Ivith significant pain. FurthetTnore, the adult teeth are unlikely lo emerge from oums in a strdight line because they ivill lake thc path of l¢ast resistance meaning tliey ivill need significant dental care ivell into adulthood. Without Teeth Team. it is highly likely that these children would not receive any treatmenl in the long term, leaving them in pain and sutT¢ring. Even though dental care is free for children. there is still much io do to educate parents, to get parents to embed oral health in their daily roulines with children and io take children for regular dental checkups. New Developments During the year 24125. we developed a programme to train dentsl prdctices in other areas of the ¢ountry to replicate the Teeth Team programme and deliver it in iheir own areas. We presented a proposal io the Integrated Care Board aboui Te¢ih Team and hoiv we operate. Our proposal Ivas accepted, and ive delivered training acioss Yorkshire. Bringing more volunteer dental practices into ihe programine was a cosl-¢ffe¢tive way of reaching more children and other areas of social deprivation. We then extended the progrdmme into North Yorkshire: Easl Yorkshire, York and reached more schools in Hull Whilst ive have noi delivered any additional training to nei¥ dental practices in othcr areas this year, we liave cnabled the practices we trained lasi year, to adopt their own Teetli Teain programme. We arc happy lo rcport that as a result- 33 neil, volunteer dental praclices across North and East Yorkshire. York, and Hull are continuing lo deliver th¢ Teeth team programme. 33,268 more children are noiv engaged and brushing their teeth everyday as well as receiving all of tl)e additional support Teeth Team offcrs. 147 more primar), schools arc involvcd in ihe programine. Througli this ICB progrdmtne. 97,947 toothbrushes and toothpaste have been distributed. We are proud of this achievement. Teeth Team through our own progrnmm¢ and the training ive have delivered to otlier practices, l)ave now ensured that 37,108 children are brnshinTr iheir ieeth everj. da)1 in areas of deprivalion. Many of tl)ese cliildren would not bc brushing iheir teeth at all without Teeth Team and ihe work we do. During the year, Teeth Team successfully submitted 5cvcral grnnt appli¢ations to Charitable Trusts and Foundations l¢ading to grnnts of £28.500. Details can be found in note 5. Income is essential, because over the past 12 months we have continued to increase the rkumbcrs of children ive support and over the cotning 12 monihs, Ive plan lo continue to groi¥ the prograininer and r¢ach more children. In addition, the ¢ost of materials. t(M)thbrushes and tooilipasle. have significantly increased.
TEETH TEAM LIMITED {A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES {CONTINUED) Schools Coniinue to be under pressure and reluctant to engage with Teeth Team, due to pressures on both time and costs bul we are continuing lo lobby schoo15 10 5hoiv ihcm the importance of or21 health to a ehild's developJnenl and good school attendan¢¢. The number of children ivith iooih decay in the schools vith i¥hi¢h ive are i¥'orking on average, Ivill mean that there will be thousands of children in schools. who vill be experiencing pain and suffering which ivill only ever gei ivorse. We continue to pusli scI)ools so we can get into as many schools as possible so we can idenlify these children and ensure ih¢y get the treatment they need. The schools ive tsrget are identified by the IDICI index ivhieh measures ihe proportion of children in Ilie school living in household poverty, and H'e target schools ivhich are highest on the index and by tlie levels of children in the school in receipt of Iree school meals. In addition to the work we do at Teeth Team. through the training we have delivered to other areas of Yorkshire, we can ¢n¢ourage oiher dentsl pra¢ti¢es to support their local schools and ensure that children in these schools receive oral health education, toothbrushes and toothpaste, biannual assessincnt and application of fluoride varnish and direct referrdl to local dentists for treatment. Tiiose children in need of treatment automatically gain access to dental services for tlieir siblings and parents if necessary. In this Ivay ive are helping lo develop a progrdmme of prevention. access. and treattnent for thousands of children at no cost to Teeth Team and reaching righi across Yorkshire. This means we reach far more children the Teeth Team could reach alone. Our long-term aim ivould be to roll out thi5 programme acr055 the wholc of the UK but ihere is still much to do. The Truste¢5 belicvc thai lh¢ s¢rvices li'e provid¢ and M'ill continue io provide are of great benefit to the ¢otntnunity and look fonvard io ¢oniinuing to proi¢¢i the oral healih of children Iivii)g in areas of social deprivation within the areas where Teeth Team delivers the programme and encouraging other areas to adopt our systems to help schools and children in their oii'n communit1¢5. Structure, Governance and Management Teeth Team Limited is a charily governed by k Board of Trustees ivho are responsible for setting ilie strategic direciion. Financial accountability is undertaken by the Ix)ard to ensure that decisions meet the tests of legality. relevance. and prudence.

We are continuing to work through our development plan ii,hich sets out or goals and challenges in more detail and continue to be collaborative, industrious. and responsive, working iii partnership with dental surgeries, dental suppliers, and business to achieve the best outcomes for children's oral l)ealth.

TEETH TEAM LIMITED NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS (CONTINUED) Trustees remuneration Ms E. Harrison, a directorltrustee, Ivas paid £Nil {2025 £250) for professioiial services to the company. The services provided included Marketing and PR and wa5 provided at a lower cost than we ivould have received elsewhere. The charge ivas also lower than M5 Harrison ivould charge for her nomial services to other organisalions. Thi5 decision was carefully ¢onsider¢d at a Trustecs meeting which did not include Ms Harrison in the discussion and ivas considered to be in the best interest of the charity. Thi5 15 because the cost iyas loiver than ihe costs from oiher providers and Ms Harrison in depth knoivledge of Teetli Team saved significant tiwne and costs. On the basis of this and iii accordance iyith the requirements of thc Chariti¢s Cotntnission, a ivritten agreement was sigiied which made clear th¢ purpose and costs of ih¢s¢ services to Teeth Team. Hoivever, these serviees Yill not be required in future years. Related pxrties £41,761 (2025 £32,416) was paid to 543 fkntal Services Limited A company controlled by CJ Groombridge, a Trustee/Director for professional services. Teeih Team does not ¢wnploy any staff at all but relies heavily on volunteer dentists ivho visit sch(K>ls and undertak¢ thc oral assessments. Hoivever. the day-to-day planning. operations and management of dental supplies, fluoride varnish applicalions and cotntnunicalions iviih s¢hools is ¢wri¢d out by livo dental Iiurses. The Iiours tl)ey vork on ihe charity are sp)radic wilh very busy periods twice a year during school visits and when ordering and distribution denthl supplies to schools but then other times of the year: thes¢ two posts are not required. Denial nurses are highly skilled and qualified and so teeth team '0]d be unable io secure dental nurses on ivhat, in effeeL ivould be zero hours contracts to account for the fluctuation in days working throughout th¢ year. Therefore, Teeth Team uses two qualified dental nurses employed be 543 Dental Servi¢es Limited as and ivhen required on a basic hourly rate. The charges from 543 Dental Services Limited only cover the costs of the basic hourly pay and is tlie tnost cost-effective iyay lo access ihe servi¢¢s of specialist dental nurses. Trustees ivould like to make clear the 543 Dental Service5 mak¢ absolutel)J iio profit from the arrdngement and are simply reimbursed at the very basi¢ cosi. Teeth Team Truyees have explored all other option% but the alternative would be ihe charily employing t¥vo dental nurses who Ivould have little to do for large periods of ihe y¢ar and therefore would not be cost effective. In addition, thi5 Ivould incur highcr charges to the charity in the fom) of holiday pay. sick pa},: pension5. Ct¢. So, after much consideralion, Trustees are 5atisfi¢d that this arrangemenl presents the most cost- effeeiive solulion and is in the best interest of ihe Charity. Member's liability The company ivas incorwrated as a company limited by guarantee and therefore has no share capital and is also registered as a Charity. The liability of the mcmbers is limited to £1 each on the winding up of the company. Each member is liable whilst being a member and for up to 12 months after ceasing to be a member.

TEETH TEAM LIMITED {A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES (CONTINUED) Achievement and Perforniao¢e During the year, the Trustees spent £82:240 in pursuit of the aims of the charity s obje¢lives and activi(ies. This is an increase of 8.4 % compared to the previou5 )'ear. Over the year. Ive have concentrated on areas of Hull. the Ea# Riding. South Humber, North Yorkshire, and areas of social deprivation around Nottingham. This is based on our ability to reach ihese areas and relationships alr¢ady ¢stablish¢d with volunteer dentists based in dental prdctices in those areas. Through our core prograinme, we have worked hard to en5urc thal ive reach as many children as possible in these locations and over th¢ pasl 12 tnonihs have ivorked ivith nineteen schools in total, eleven in Hull, three in Nottinghatn. four in North Yorkshi and one sch¢M)l in South Humber. We have worked with 3840 children. all of whotll have received toothbrushes and toothpaste tl)roughout the year and have underoone daily supervised ioothbrushing ivithin school. We have distributed 9,424 toothbrushes and 2,712 tubes of tlK)thpaste. In addition, all the children have re¢¢iv¢d dental exainiiiations this year by volunteer dentists equating to 6,158 denial asscssmcnts And 4,421 fluoride varnisli applications to protect their teeth. We aim for tsvo dental assessments and application5 of fluorid¢ varnish per child per year but thcrc arc many variables affecting this, such as medical history reasons, consent not issued by parents, sensory needs, school absence and refusal. Foiindation Dentists have continued to suptK)rt the Teeth Team programmc and the contributed volunteer time given througli the Deaneries to Teeth Team. Other dental practices in Hull and oiher areas ivhere Teeth Team operated had given 38 days completely free of cliarge lo Teeih Team at a volu¢ of £60,800. Tivo dentists per day. (British Guild Rate @ £800.00 a day per Dentist) Of the 3,840 ¢hildren examined, in total, there M'ere 2,649 decayed teeth. This is tooth d¢cay that will affect other teeth and the future of developing tecth and is a shocking statistic in children so young. This is a reduction on previous years and evidence that our ivork is having a positive iinpact. At the titne of each schoo15 last assessmeni, Ihere ivere 678 children requiring dental trcatmeni and 263 needing urgeiit treatment. We clas5 four or more decayed i¢¢ih as urgent. This is a 16.3Q/o drop on tl)e previous year: and again, is evidence thai ive are having a positive impact on children's oral liealth. However, it does slill mean that 17.60/0 of the children seen b), I'olunteer dentists needed treatment such as fillings and tooth extractions. Within those numbers, 6.80/• ivere in urgent need, tlleaning 263 children ivill have been experiencing acut¢ pain and suffering that ivas left unchecked and without tlie intervention of the Teeth Team programme, would only ever get ivorse. Sadly, to dale: not All the 678 children who needed treatment have acces5cd th¢ dental treatment they urgently need. Whilst it is positive for those children that hai'e noii, re¢eiw¢d iiea(ment and il)ey are no longer experiencing pain and suffering. it does mean that despite letters being issued to parents and carers and folloiv up letters. some children have still noi bttn tsken to a dental surgery, for treatmenl even thougli we match them with local dentist5 to facilitaie this.
TEETH TEAM LIMITED {A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES (CONTINUED) After three dental assessments in sch(K)l& if parents Still fail to take their child to a local dentist surgery, Ive ivork ivith the schools to raise this as a safcguarding issue and the school arranges to call the parents in for a disCUS5ion. This is because, these children ii'ill be experiencing pain and ii'ithout trealm¢nt, could eventually need full tooth extraction which ledves them only able to eat soft foods until adult teeth come through. li also m¢afts that as baby teeth set the channel for adult teeth: as adult teeth Come through. they 'ill go through a 'teething' proce5S Ivith significant pain. FurthetTnore, the adult teeth are unlikely lo emerge from oums in a strdight line because they ivill lake thc path of l¢ast resistance meaning tliey ivill need significant dental care ivell into adulthood. Without Teeth Team. it is highly likely that these children would not receive any treatmenl in the long term, leaving them in pain and sutT¢ring. Even though dental care is free for children. there is still much io do to educate parents, to get parents to embed oral health in their daily roulines with children and io take children for regular dental checkups. New Developments During the year 24125. we developed a programme to train dentsl prdctices in other areas of the ¢ountry to replicate the Teeth Team programme and deliver it in iheir own areas. We presented a proposal io the Integrated Care Board aboui Te¢ih Team and hoiv we operate. Our proposal Ivas accepted, and ive delivered training acioss Yorkshire. Bringing more volunteer dental practices into ihe programine was a cosl-¢ffe¢tive way of reaching more children and other areas of social deprivation. We then extended the progrdmme into North Yorkshire: Easl Yorkshire, York and reached more schools in Hull Whilst ive have noi delivered any additional training to nei¥ dental practices in othcr areas this year, we liave cnabled the practices we trained lasi year, to adopt their own Teetli Teain programme. We arc happy lo rcport that as a result- 33 neil, volunteer dental praclices across North and East Yorkshire. York, and Hull are continuing lo deliver th¢ Teeth team programme. 33,268 more children are noiv engaged and brushing their teeth everyday as well as receiving all of tl)e additional support Teeth Team offcrs. 147 more primar), schools arc involvcd in ihe programine. Througli this ICB progrdmtne. 97,947 toothbrushes and toothpaste have been distributed. We are proud of this achievement. Teeth Team through our own progrnmm¢ and the training ive have delivered to otlier practices, l)ave now ensured that 37,108 children are brnshinTr iheir ieeth everj. da)1 in areas of deprivalion. Many of tl)ese cliildren would not bc brushing iheir teeth at all without Teeth Team and ihe work we do. During the year, Teeth Team successfully submitted 5cvcral grnnt appli¢ations to Charitable Trusts and Foundations l¢ading to grnnts of £28.500. Details can be found in note 5. Income is essential, because over the past 12 months we have continued to increase the rkumbcrs of children ive support and over the cotning 12 monihs, Ive plan lo continue to groi¥ the prograininer and r¢ach more children. In addition, the ¢ost of materials. t(M)thbrushes and tooilipasle. have significantly increased.
TEETH TEAM LIMITED {A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES {CONTINUED) Schools Coniinue to be under pressure and reluctant to engage with Teeth Team, due to pressures on both time and costs bul we are continuing lo lobby schoo15 10 5hoiv ihcm the importance of or21 health to a ehild's developJnenl and good school attendan¢¢. The number of children ivith iooih decay in the schools vith i¥hi¢h ive are i¥'orking on average, Ivill mean that there will be thousands of children in schools. who vill be experiencing pain and suffering which ivill only ever gei ivorse. We continue to pusli scI)ools so we can get into as many schools as possible so we can idenlify these children and ensure ih¢y get the treatment they need. The schools ive tsrget are identified by the IDICI index ivhieh measures ihe proportion of children in Ilie school living in household poverty, and H'e target schools ivhich are highest on the index and by tlie levels of children in the school in receipt of Iree school meals. In addition to the work we do at Teeth Team. through the training we have delivered to other areas of Yorkshire, we can ¢n¢ourage oiher dentsl pra¢ti¢es to support their local schools and ensure that children in these schools receive oral health education, toothbrushes and toothpaste, biannual assessincnt and application of fluoride varnish and direct referrdl to local dentists for treatment. Tiiose children in need of treatment automatically gain access to dental services for tlieir siblings and parents if necessary. In this Ivay ive are helping lo develop a progrdmme of prevention. access. and treattnent for thousands of children at no cost to Teeth Team and reaching righi across Yorkshire. This means we reach far more children the Teeth Team could reach alone. Our long-term aim ivould be to roll out thi5 programme acr055 the wholc of the UK but ihere is still much to do. The Truste¢5 belicvc thai lh¢ s¢rvices li'e provid¢ and M'ill continue io provide are of great benefit to the ¢otntnunity and look fonvard io ¢oniinuing to proi¢¢i the oral healih of children Iivii)g in areas of social deprivation within the areas where Teeth Team delivers the programme and encouraging other areas to adopt our systems to help schools and children in their oii'n communit1¢5. Structure, Governance and Management Teeth Team Limited is a charily governed by k Board of Trustees ivho are responsible for setting ilie strategic direciion. Financial accountability is undertaken by the Ix)ard to ensure that decisions meet the tests of legality. relevance. and prudence.

TEETH TEAM LIMITED NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS (CONTINUED) Trustees remuneration Ms E. Harrison, a directorltrustee, Ivas paid £Nil {2025 £250) for professioiial services to the company. The services provided included Marketing and PR and wa5 provided at a lower cost than we ivould have received elsewhere. The charge ivas also lower than M5 Harrison ivould charge for her nomial services to other organisalions. Thi5 decision was carefully ¢onsider¢d at a Trustecs meeting which did not include Ms Harrison in the discussion and ivas considered to be in the best interest of the charity. Thi5 15 because the cost iyas loiver than ihe costs from oiher providers and Ms Harrison in depth knoivledge of Teetli Team saved significant tiwne and costs. On the basis of this and iii accordance iyith the requirements of thc Chariti¢s Cotntnission, a ivritten agreement was sigiied which made clear th¢ purpose and costs of ih¢s¢ services to Teeth Team. Hoivever, these serviees Yill not be required in future years. Related pxrties £41,761 (2025 £32,416) was paid to 543 fkntal Services Limited A company controlled by CJ Groombridge, a Trustee/Director for professional services. Teeih Team does not ¢wnploy any staff at all but relies heavily on volunteer dentists ivho visit sch(K>ls and undertak¢ thc oral assessments. Hoivever. the day-to-day planning. operations and management of dental supplies, fluoride varnish applicalions and cotntnunicalions iviih s¢hools is ¢wri¢d out by livo dental Iiurses. The Iiours tl)ey vork on ihe charity are sp)radic wilh very busy periods twice a year during school visits and when ordering and distribution denthl supplies to schools but then other times of the year: thes¢ two posts are not required. Denial nurses are highly skilled and qualified and so teeth team '0]d be unable io secure dental nurses on ivhat, in effeeL ivould be zero hours contracts to account for the fluctuation in days working throughout th¢ year. Therefore, Teeth Team uses two qualified dental nurses employed be 543 Dental Servi¢es Limited as and ivhen required on a basic hourly rate. The charges from 543 Dental Services Limited only cover the costs of the basic hourly pay and is tlie tnost cost-effective iyay lo access ihe servi¢¢s of specialist dental nurses. Trustees ivould like to make clear the 543 Dental Service5 mak¢ absolutel)J iio profit from the arrdngement and are simply reimbursed at the very basi¢ cosi. Teeth Team Truyees have explored all other option% but the alternative would be ihe charily employing t¥vo dental nurses who Ivould have little to do for large periods of ihe y¢ar and therefore would not be cost effective. In addition, thi5 Ivould incur highcr charges to the charity in the fom) of holiday pay. sick pa},: pension5. Ct¢. So, after much consideralion, Trustees are 5atisfi¢d that this arrangemenl presents the most cost- effeeiive solulion and is in the best interest of ihe Charity. Member's liability The company ivas incorwrated as a company limited by guarantee and therefore has no share capital and is also registered as a Charity. The liability of the mcmbers is limited to £1 each on the winding up of the company. Each member is liable whilst being a member and for up to 12 months after ceasing to be a member.

TEETH TEAM LIMITED {A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES (CONTINUED) Achievement and Perforniao¢e During the year, the Trustees spent £82:240 in pursuit of the aims of the charity s obje¢lives and activi(ies. This is an increase of 8.4 % compared to the previou5 )'ear. Over the year. Ive have concentrated on areas of Hull. the Ea# Riding. South Humber, North Yorkshire, and areas of social deprivation around Nottingham. This is based on our ability to reach ihese areas and relationships alr¢ady ¢stablish¢d with volunteer dentists based in dental prdctices in those areas. Through our core prograinme, we have worked hard to en5urc thal ive reach as many children as possible in these locations and over th¢ pasl 12 tnonihs have ivorked ivith nineteen schools in total, eleven in Hull, three in Nottinghatn. four in North Yorkshi and one sch¢M)l in South Humber. We have worked with 3840 children. all of whotll have received toothbrushes and toothpaste tl)roughout the year and have underoone daily supervised ioothbrushing ivithin school. We have distributed 9,424 toothbrushes and 2,712 tubes of tlK)thpaste. In addition, all the children have re¢¢iv¢d dental exainiiiations this year by volunteer dentists equating to 6,158 denial asscssmcnts And 4,421 fluoride varnisli applications to protect their teeth. We aim for tsvo dental assessments and application5 of fluorid¢ varnish per child per year but thcrc arc many variables affecting this, such as medical history reasons, consent not issued by parents, sensory needs, school absence and refusal. Foiindation Dentists have continued to suptK)rt the Teeth Team programmc and the contributed volunteer time given througli the Deaneries to Teeth Team. Other dental practices in Hull and oiher areas ivhere Teeth Team operated had given 38 days completely free of cliarge lo Teeih Team at a volu¢ of £60,800. Tivo dentists per day. (British Guild Rate @ £800.00 a day per Dentist) Of the 3,840 ¢hildren examined, in total, there M'ere 2,649 decayed teeth. This is tooth d¢cay that will affect other teeth and the future of developing tecth and is a shocking statistic in children so young. This is a reduction on previous years and evidence that our ivork is having a positive iinpact. At the titne of each schoo15 last assessmeni, Ihere ivere 678 children requiring dental trcatmeni and 263 needing urgeiit treatment. We clas5 four or more decayed i¢¢ih as urgent. This is a 16.3Q/o drop on tl)e previous year: and again, is evidence thai ive are having a positive impact on children's oral liealth. However, it does slill mean that 17.60/0 of the children seen b), I'olunteer dentists needed treatment such as fillings and tooth extractions. Within those numbers, 6.80/• ivere in urgent need, tlleaning 263 children ivill have been experiencing acut¢ pain and suffering that ivas left unchecked and without tlie intervention of the Teeth Team programme, would only ever get ivorse. Sadly, to dale: not All the 678 children who needed treatment have acces5cd th¢ dental treatment they urgently need. Whilst it is positive for those children that hai'e noii, re¢eiw¢d iiea(ment and il)ey are no longer experiencing pain and suffering. it does mean that despite letters being issued to parents and carers and folloiv up letters. some children have still noi bttn tsken to a dental surgery, for treatmenl even thougli we match them with local dentist5 to facilitaie this.
TEETH TEAM LIMITED {A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES (CONTINUED) After three dental assessments in sch(K)l& if parents Still fail to take their child to a local dentist surgery, Ive ivork ivith the schools to raise this as a safcguarding issue and the school arranges to call the parents in for a disCUS5ion. This is because, these children ii'ill be experiencing pain and ii'ithout trealm¢nt, could eventually need full tooth extraction which ledves them only able to eat soft foods until adult teeth come through. li also m¢afts that as baby teeth set the channel for adult teeth: as adult teeth Come through. they 'ill go through a 'teething' proce5S Ivith significant pain. FurthetTnore, the adult teeth are unlikely lo emerge from oums in a strdight line because they ivill lake thc path of l¢ast resistance meaning tliey ivill need significant dental care ivell into adulthood. Without Teeth Team. it is highly likely that these children would not receive any treatmenl in the long term, leaving them in pain and sutT¢ring. Even though dental care is free for children. there is still much io do to educate parents, to get parents to embed oral health in their daily roulines with children and io take children for regular dental checkups. New Developments During the year 24125. we developed a programme to train dentsl prdctices in other areas of the ¢ountry to replicate the Teeth Team programme and deliver it in iheir own areas. We presented a proposal io the Integrated Care Board aboui Te¢ih Team and hoiv we operate. Our proposal Ivas accepted, and ive delivered training acioss Yorkshire. Bringing more volunteer dental practices into ihe programine was a cosl-¢ffe¢tive way of reaching more children and other areas of social deprivation. We then extended the progrdmme into North Yorkshire: Easl Yorkshire, York and reached more schools in Hull Whilst ive have noi delivered any additional training to nei¥ dental practices in othcr areas this year, we liave cnabled the practices we trained lasi year, to adopt their own Teetli Teain programme. We arc happy lo rcport that as a result- 33 neil, volunteer dental praclices across North and East Yorkshire. York, and Hull are continuing lo deliver th¢ Teeth team programme. 33,268 more children are noiv engaged and brushing their teeth everyday as well as receiving all of tl)e additional support Teeth Team offcrs. 147 more primar), schools arc involvcd in ihe programine. Througli this ICB progrdmtne. 97,947 toothbrushes and toothpaste have been distributed. We are proud of this achievement. Teeth Team through our own progrnmm¢ and the training ive have delivered to otlier practices, l)ave now ensured that 37,108 children are brnshinTr iheir ieeth everj. da)1 in areas of deprivalion. Many of tl)ese cliildren would not bc brushing iheir teeth at all without Teeth Team and ihe work we do. During the year, Teeth Team successfully submitted 5cvcral grnnt appli¢ations to Charitable Trusts and Foundations l¢ading to grnnts of £28.500. Details can be found in note 5. Income is essential, because over the past 12 months we have continued to increase the rkumbcrs of children ive support and over the cotning 12 monihs, Ive plan lo continue to groi¥ the prograininer and r¢ach more children. In addition, the ¢ost of materials. t(M)thbrushes and tooilipasle. have significantly increased.
TEETH TEAM LIMITED {A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES {CONTINUED) Schools Coniinue to be under pressure and reluctant to engage with Teeth Team, due to pressures on both time and costs bul we are continuing lo lobby schoo15 10 5hoiv ihcm the importance of or21 health to a ehild's developJnenl and good school attendan¢¢. The number of children ivith iooih decay in the schools vith i¥hi¢h ive are i¥'orking on average, Ivill mean that there will be thousands of children in schools. who vill be experiencing pain and suffering which ivill only ever gei ivorse. We continue to pusli scI)ools so we can get into as many schools as possible so we can idenlify these children and ensure ih¢y get the treatment they need. The schools ive tsrget are identified by the IDICI index ivhieh measures ihe proportion of children in Ilie school living in household poverty, and H'e target schools ivhich are highest on the index and by tlie levels of children in the school in receipt of Iree school meals. In addition to the work we do at Teeth Team. through the training we have delivered to other areas of Yorkshire, we can ¢n¢ourage oiher dentsl pra¢ti¢es to support their local schools and ensure that children in these schools receive oral health education, toothbrushes and toothpaste, biannual assessincnt and application of fluoride varnish and direct referrdl to local dentists for treatment. Tiiose children in need of treatment automatically gain access to dental services for tlieir siblings and parents if necessary. In this Ivay ive are helping lo develop a progrdmme of prevention. access. and treattnent for thousands of children at no cost to Teeth Team and reaching righi across Yorkshire. This means we reach far more children the Teeth Team could reach alone. Our long-term aim ivould be to roll out thi5 programme acr055 the wholc of the UK but ihere is still much to do. The Truste¢5 belicvc thai lh¢ s¢rvices li'e provid¢ and M'ill continue io provide are of great benefit to the ¢otntnunity and look fonvard io ¢oniinuing to proi¢¢i the oral healih of children Iivii)g in areas of social deprivation within the areas where Teeth Team delivers the programme and encouraging other areas to adopt our systems to help schools and children in their oii'n communit1¢5.

TEETH TEAM LIMITED NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS (CONTINUED) Trustees remuneration Ms E. Harrison, a directorltrustee, Ivas paid £Nil {2025 £250) for professioiial services to the company. The services provided included Marketing and PR and wa5 provided at a lower cost than we ivould have received elsewhere. The charge ivas also lower than M5 Harrison ivould charge for her nomial services to other organisalions. Thi5 decision was carefully ¢onsider¢d at a Trustecs meeting which did not include Ms Harrison in the discussion and ivas considered to be in the best interest of the charity. Thi5 15 because the cost iyas loiver than ihe costs from oiher providers and Ms Harrison in depth knoivledge of Teetli Team saved significant tiwne and costs. On the basis of this and iii accordance iyith the requirements of thc Chariti¢s Cotntnission, a ivritten agreement was sigiied which made clear th¢ purpose and costs of ih¢s¢ services to Teeth Team. Hoivever, these serviees Yill not be required in future years. Related pxrties £41,761 (2025 £32,416) was paid to 543 fkntal Services Limited A company controlled by CJ Groombridge, a Trustee/Director for professional services. Teeih Team does not ¢wnploy any staff at all but relies heavily on volunteer dentists ivho visit sch(K>ls and undertak¢ thc oral assessments. Hoivever. the day-to-day planning. operations and management of dental supplies, fluoride varnish applicalions and cotntnunicalions iviih s¢hools is ¢wri¢d out by livo dental Iiurses. The Iiours tl)ey vork on ihe charity are sp)radic wilh very busy periods twice a year during school visits and when ordering and distribution denthl supplies to schools but then other times of the year: thes¢ two posts are not required. Denial nurses are highly skilled and qualified and so teeth team '0]d be unable io secure dental nurses on ivhat, in effeeL ivould be zero hours contracts to account for the fluctuation in days working throughout th¢ year. Therefore, Teeth Team uses two qualified dental nurses employed be 543 Dental Servi¢es Limited as and ivhen required on a basic hourly rate. The charges from 543 Dental Services Limited only cover the costs of the basic hourly pay and is tlie tnost cost-effective iyay lo access ihe servi¢¢s of specialist dental nurses. Trustees ivould like to make clear the 543 Dental Service5 mak¢ absolutel)J iio profit from the arrdngement and are simply reimbursed at the very basi¢ cosi. Teeth Team Truyees have explored all other option% but the alternative would be ihe charily employing t¥vo dental nurses who Ivould have little to do for large periods of ihe y¢ar and therefore would not be cost effective. In addition, thi5 Ivould incur highcr charges to the charity in the fom) of holiday pay. sick pa},: pension5. Ct¢. So, after much consideralion, Trustees are 5atisfi¢d that this arrangemenl presents the most cost- effeeiive solulion and is in the best interest of ihe Charity. Member's liability The company ivas incorwrated as a company limited by guarantee and therefore has no share capital and is also registered as a Charity. The liability of the mcmbers is limited to £1 each on the winding up of the company. Each member is liable whilst being a member and for up to 12 months after ceasing to be a member.
