  • Title: Getting help for children: the need to expand the dental workforce.
    Author: Gehshan S, Mijic M.
    Journal: J Calif Dent Assoc; 2011 Jul; 39(7):481-90. PubMed ID: 21905544.
    Abstract:
    Millions of children in America suffer from poor oral health due to lack of access to dental care. The landmark U.S. Surgeon General's Report in 2000 highlighted significant disparities, yet poor oral health remains an epidemic. America's system of delivering dental care is poorly equipped to address access disparities. However, opportunities abound to improve access and expand the dental workforce. Creative thinking and innovative solutions are needed to expand care to children in need.
