Story Behind the Curve

There were 488 survey responses to the 2018 oral health survey. The survey was a targeted effort of the Access to Services workgroup to better understand why people don't go to the dentist, whether or not they know of low cost oral health resources, and who they trust for oral health information. Popualtions targeted for the survye were both the Medicaid population and those who spoke another primary language. The results will be used to better promote oral health services and to educate residents on what services are available and what Medicaid coverage includes.
