Our  Values  

Page 5: PPT Student

In  Canada,  general  oral  health  care  is  not  included  in  the  Canada  Health  Act  (CHA).    Most  Canadians  receive  oral  health  care  through  privately  operated  dental  clinics  and  pay  for  services  through  insurance  or  by  paying  for  it  themselves.      According  to  the  Canadian  Health  Measures  Survey  (2007-­‐2009):  

6%  of  Canadians  have  public  insurance  

whereas  32%  are  not  covered  by  private  or  

public  insurance.  

Lower  income  Canadians  are  

TWICE  AS  LIKELY  to  have  cavi?es  that  

need  fillings  compared  to  

Canadians  from  higher  income  

groups.  

17%  of  Canadians  report  that  they  did  not  visit  a  dental  

professional  due  to  cost  in  the  past  

12  months.  

96%  of  adults  have  had  a  history  

of  cavi?es    

59%  of  12-­‐18  year  olds  have  or  have  had  a  cavity.

Why  Dental  Public  Health?  

Page 6: PPT Student

Dental public health is the  science  and  the  art  of  preven.ng  and  controlling  disease  and  promo.ng  dental  health  through  organized  community  efforts.  

It serves the community as the patient rather than the individual through research, health promotion, education and group dental programs.
