Why:
The need is greater than ever - an estimated 30 percent of Californians
experience barriers to care. State budget cuts eliminated most oral health
services for low-income adults leaving them without access to dental care. In
children, dental disease is a chronic epidemic - more common than asthma and
obesity - affecting nearly two-thirds of California's children by the time they
reach third grade.
