Tue. 4/17 11a: Dental clinics on many reservations across the United States suffer from understaffing and patient overload, while some reservations may not have a dental clinic at all.
Several states are looking to bring an Alaska-based mid-level dental program to their communities as a way to expand dental coverage for their residents who have little or no access to proper dental care.
Are dental therapists who have less training than certified dentists be the answer to the dental crisis in tribal communities? Just what services does a dental therapist provide and how does it differ from a dentist?
