Special NIDCR Lecture
Dr. Jennifer Webster-Cyriaque, the Deputy Director of the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR), will discuss a 2021 report commissioned by the U.S. Surgeon General, titled “Oral Health in America.” It is only the second comprehensive document on this subject in more than 20 years.
Dr. Webster-Cyriaque will present the report’s recommendations for improving oral health in America, including the importance of “understanding the deep disparities in the experience of disease by different population groups and the systemic inequities in access to care that inevitably accompany those disparities.”
