@kate_schechter @OPENoralhealth @justiceinaging Protecting and strengthening #Medicaid adult #dental benefits is key to increasing oral health equity and addressing racial disparities. #oralhealthequity #progressandequity #olderadults #dualeligibles @OPENoralhealth @justiceinaging @amberstweet @FamiliesUSA
@justiceinaging gave a great presentation at #OPENAcademy on Covid-19 and dual eligibles—and how to push back on funding cuts to dental through #progressandequity campaigns @OPENoralhealth
Thanks @OPENoralhealth and all the co-sponsors! We look forward to making the link to specific social determinants. Also determining who else needs to be at the table and keep promoting oral health as a social justice issue. #OPENdoors #progressandequity

3/3 "Some people have all the keys they need to unlock the doors to oral health, but others are missing some keys. Without a full set of keys, people won’t be able to access good oral health—no matter how hard they try." #OPENdoors #progressandequity
@OPENoralhealth That their support of oral health legislation or the lack thereof has real, long-term impacts in the lives of their constituents. We saw this when we almost lost C.H.I.P. coverage earlier this year. #OPENdoors #progressandequity
No transportation, paid time off work, availability (working adults/parents might need evening/weekend appts), a provider who speaks different languages, health literacy (e.g. dental disease largely preventable; don’t need to wait until pain appears) #OPENdoors #progressandequity
@NAC_Phoenix @OPENoralhealth this is true! it also varies greatly by county: in Glenn county, 65% of kids in low-income families visited a dentist last year, but in Alpine county ZERO percent did. #OPENdoors #progressandequity (source: https://t.co/OpNvDDkjaN)
Children eat, talk, smile, etc. with their mouth. If in pain, it’s hard to do any of that and feel good about oneself. Oral health affects our physical and mental health . #OPENdoors #progressandequity
@OPENoralhealth That where people live, literally their zip code, impacts their health and that health can vary greatly between zip codes even in the same town! https://t.co/d3gwhF09r5 #OPENdoors #progressandequity
@OPENoralhealth That it’s not just about looks. And that families with poor oral health can pass that on to their kids #OPENdoors #progressandequity
@OPENoralhealth Another misperception is that people living in poverty don’t understand the importance the importance of #oralhealth let’s support #progressandequity
@OPENoralhealth There are very real barriers to care. 2015 @ADAHPI study, 99% value oral healthcare in AZ but cost is the no 1 reason why they don’t see a dentist. #OPENdoors #progressandequity
Or that it's just about brushing and flossing (hint: it's not!). See https://t.co/eDTG28WTaQ #OPENdoors #progressandequity
