PUBLI C POLI CY OPTIONS FOR BETTER DENTAL HEALTH Report of a Study Division of Health Care Services INSTITUTE OF MEDI CINE December 1980 Nat tonal Academy P res s Washington, D. C.

NOTICE: The project that is the subject of this report was approved by the Governing Board of the National Research Council, whose members are drawn from the Councils of the National Academy of Sciences, the National Academy of Engineering, and the Institute of Medicine. The members of the committee responsible for the report were chosen for their special competencies and with regard for appropriate balance. This report has been reviewed by a group other than the authors according to procedures approved by a Report Review Committee con- sisting of members of the National Academy of Sciences, the National Academy of Engineering, and the Institute of Medicine. The Institute of Medicine was chartered in 1970 by the National Academy of Sciences to enlist distinguished members of the appropriate profes- sions in the examination of policy matters pertaining to the health of the public. In this, the Institute acts under both the Academy's 1863 Congressional charter responsibility to be an advisor to the Federal Government, and its own initiative in identifying issues of medical care, research and education. This publication is one of a series, "Issues in Dental Health Policy," sponsored by the W. K. Kellogg Foundation, Battle Creek, MI 49016 2101 Constitution Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20418 Area (202) 389-6178 Publication TOM 80-06 ii
