Promoting Equity in Oral Health is a True "Mission of Mercy"
In this episode of Public Health Out Loud, Dr. Chan discusses the importance of oral health with local dentists, Dr. Sam Zwetchkenbaum and Dr. Jeff Dodge and their role in the Rhode Island Mission of Mercy. This two-day, annual event, has provided thousands of Rhode Islanders, who may not have regular access, with free dental care. Download and listen in as the conversation also explores the need for more oral health professionals in Rhode Island, and how young people interested in going into the profession have the opportunity to help eliminate dental health inequities and, in Dr. Dodge's words, "make the world a better place."
