Relative to Whites, Blacks (OR = 0.65) were less likely to have a dental cleaning in the previous 12 months.

Our findings suggest that public health programs with an emphasis on educating middle-aged and older minority populations on the benefits of oral health could have a large impact, as there is much room for improvement. Given the importance of oral health and a population that is rapidly becoming older and more diverse, the need for improved dental care utilization is significant.</p></div></front><back><div1
