Join CareQuest Institute for a webinar at 1 p.m. on Thursday, September 5, where they will present findings from their fourth annual State of Oral Health Equity in America (SOHEA) survey. This year, more than 9,000 adults — the largest survey of its kind — provided insights around the value of cultural humility, the frequency of emergency room visits, and the importance of having insurance. To shine a light on the most compelling takeaways from the survey, a diverse panel of experts — including dentists, advocates, and researchers — will discuss how the findings influence providers, policymakers, and other oral health stakeholders. 

Learning Objectives

  • List at least three significant findings from the State of Oral Health Equity in America survey.
  • Recognize how racial, ethnic, and economic disparities can negatively influence access to oral health care and patient outcomes. 
  • Discuss how the oral health experiences of adults living in the United States can influence clinical practice, policy development, and advocacy.
