New knowledge path on oral health and pregnant women, infants, children, and adolescents

Presented in time for Children’s Dental Health Month, the National Maternal and Child Oral Health Resource Center (OHRC) released a new edition of its knowledge path about oral health and pregnant women, infants, children, and adolescents.

This electronic resource guide points to resources that analyze data, describe programs, and report on policy and research aimed at improving access to and the quality of oral health care. Separate sections identify resources on specific aspects of oral health including child care and Head Start, dental sealants, early childhood caries, fluoride varnish, K-12 education, pregnancy, and school-based care. A separate section lists oral health resources for consumers. This was produced in collaboration with the Maternal and Child Health Library at Georgetown University.
