Oral health is essential to general health and well-being, but there is an epidemic of oral diseases affecting vulnerable populations—poor children, older people, and many members of racial and ethnic minority groups. With support from a coalition of sponsors, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine will build on these reports by convening a broad group of stakeholders in a public workshop to discuss opportunities to sustainably implement innovative models, practices, and strategies to reduce disparities and improve oral health in the US.
