The Oral Health Unit seeks to improve the oral health of Oregon citizens across the lifespan. We work to decrease the number of children with decayed, filled or missing teeth, increase the number of children with preventive dental sealants in their permanent molars and increase the percent of people served by fluoridated community water systems.
