[The promotion of the dental health of migrants].
The dental health of migrants in Holland is critical. Health education can be a good method to improve this situation. It is important to correspond with the personal background, the knowledge attitude and behavior of the individual client. In health education for migrants language and cultural differences need to be overcome. Until now there is a limited number of initiatives to promote the dental health. Expert knowledge and skills of health educators need to be improved and more supporting educational materials have to be developed.
