  • Title: A comprehensive school-based/linked dental program: an essential piece of the California access to care puzzle.
    Author: Fine JI, Isman RE, Grant CB.
    Journal: J Calif Dent Assoc; 2012 Mar; 40(3):229-37. PubMed ID: 22655421.
    Abstract:
    California children suffer more from dental disease than any other chronic childhood disease. Disparities in access and oral health are disproportionately represented among children from minority and low-income families. A comprehensive school-based/linked dental program is one essential ingredient in addressing these problems. Described here are the goals, program elements, and challenges of building a seamless dental services system that could reduce barriers care, maximize resources, and employ best practices to improve oral health.
