“ No one should suffer from oral diseases or conditions that can be effectively prevented and treated . No schoolchild should suffer the stigma of craniofacial birth defects nor be found unable to concentrate because of the pain of untreated oral infections . No rural inhabitant , no homebound adult , no inner city dweller should experience poor oral health because of

barriers to access to care and shortages of resources and personnel .”
