Improving the Oral Health of Alaska Natives
There is a high prevalence of oral disease in the Alaska Native population, much of which goes untreated, creating a large discrepancy between the level of their oral health and that of the general population. The causes of this discrepancy are multiple—a major cause being the lack of access to care, especially in remote Alaska Native villages. Improving the oral health status of Alaska Natives will require treatment of current disease and initia…
Sekiguchi Et Al. Respond
We appreciate the opportunity to respond to the criticisms of our article, “Improving the Oral Health of Alaska Natives,”1 by some members of the dental public health community. The American Dental Association (ADA) is fully supportive of the Dental Health Aide Program in Alaska, except for allowing non-dentists to perform irreversible surgical treatments. The ADA considers protecting the oral health and safety of the public as its obligation; al…
Predictors of Tooth Loss in Two US Adult Populations
Over a 10-year period, the incidence of tooth loss, the rates of tooth loss, and the predictors of tooth loss were found to vary by population and by sex. These results illustrate the limits of generalizing tooth loss findings across different study cohorts and indicate that there may exist important differences in risk factors for tooth loss among US adult populations

The study population experienced substantial exposure to dental materials
Dental care utilization over time
Cost of Fluoridation
Previous data relating to the cost of fluoridation often do not include annualized costs or costs for labor and maintenance. The purpose of this study was to estimate accurately current costs for initiating and maintaining fluoridation and to develop a methodology that can be used to provide the cost basis for further cost-effectiveness studies. The data were collected from 44 Florida communities that had initiated community water fluoridation be…
