What should dental public health be in the future?
Many factors contribute to a successful dental public health program. Each of these must be developed and constantly cultivated to ensure the continuation and improvement of the program. In looking to the future, dental public health must remember its commitment to the community as its patient and its long history of public/private partnership. To best serve the citizens of the state, participants in this partnership must carefully consider which activities are appropriate for the different providers of dental services.
