Norwegian Dental Patient Association

Norwegian Dental Patient Association

Norwegian Dental Patient Association (Norwegian: Forbundet Tenner og Helse) is a Norwegian patient organization working for a better and non-toxic dentistry. It represents everyone's interests, both those who are sick and the healthy who want alternative tooth filling materials and less strain on the environment. The association was founded in 1990 under the name Tannskadeforbundet i Norge, and got its present name in 1996. Norwegian Dental Patient Association is a member of the Norwegian Federation of Organisations of Disabled People. It publishes the magazine Tenner & Helse (founded in 1995 by Geir Bjørklund).
