Evaluating Oral Health Care Among Medical Students
UMass Chan students face barriers to professional dental care and do reasonably well on personal dental hygiene. To improve access to dental care, especially for those on Medicaid, efforts should be made to provide referral resources and consider an on-campus dental clinic. Hispanic students may need more money in their loan package. More study on this topic is needed nationally.
