Aim To review the impact of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists on the facial profile and oral cavity and to highlight their relevance to dental practice. Methods A narrative review of the medical and dental literature was undertaken, alongside review of UK regulatory guidance, to assess the effects of GLP-1 receptor agonists on oral and facial tissues. Results GLP-1 receptor agonists are increasingly prescribed in the UK for the management of obesity and diabetes. Despite their widespread use, there is limited dental literature addressing their effects on the facial profile and oral cavity. Consequently, dentists and dental care professionals are increasingly likely to encounter patients taking these medications without clear guidance on associated oral or facial implications. Conclusion As prescribing of GLP-1 receptor agonists increases, awareness of their potential oral and facial effects is essential for dental practitioners. Improved knowledge will support appropriate patient management and highlight the need for further dental-focused research.

Oral health is a vital aspect of overall health and wellbeing, yet individuals experiencing homelessness often bear a disproportionate burden of poor oral health and its consequences. This paper explores how community engagement and equity-oriented research can be powerful and complementary tools to inform and enhance evidence-based service design for these patients. We present illustrative examples from both the United Kingdom and international contexts. Community engagement captures a genuine, patient-centred understanding of current realities, while research builds on this foundation to identify and address priority needs. This targeted approach increases the likelihood of impactful interventions that move from ‘what is' to ‘what could be'. The ongoing cycle of inquiry and collaboration fosters a dynamic synergy, laying the groundwork for inclusive, responsive and sustainable oral healthcare. We call on policymakers, service providers, researchers and educators to continue advancing these community-partnered approaches. When care is designed following the principle that ‘nothing about us is done without us', oral health services for people experiencing homelessness can become truly accessible, effective and transformative, for individuals and for society as a whole.
