Transform
We can improve health by integrating oral health into overall health. See what your role could be in transforming care systems of the future.
The health of your mouth affects your overall health and well-being. Unfortunately, too many people struggle with oral disease, even though it is almost entirely preventable. Lower-income people and communities of color are more likely to have poor oral health.
Oral health is a social justice issue. To ensure equal opportunity, we must work to improve access to dental care for vulnerable and at-risk populations, including lower-income children and families living in underserved areas. We must commit to preventing this disease and strive for 100% access and zero disparities.
