We are encouraged that it shows far less untreated tooth decay in children, with dentists providing needed treatment,” said ADA President Maxine Feinberg, DDS. “Dental Medicaid visits have been increasing and more kids are seeing the dentist. Now, we must stay the course, building on that momentum to continue making an impact for children, and expand efforts to prevent dental disease before it starts.”
