This five-­year initiative involves the placement of dental hygienists in 16 Colorado primary care medical clinics in an expansive effort to increase access to preventive dental health services.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, tooth decay is the most common chronic disease among U.S. children ages 6 to 11.
