Abstract:

Oral diseases including dental caries and periodontal disease are among the most prevalent and costly diseases in Australia today. Around 5.4% of Australias health dollar is spent on dental services totalling around $2.6 billion, 84% of which are delivered through the private sector (AIHW 2001). The other 16% is spent providing public sector services in varied and inadequate ways. While disease rates among school children have declined significantly in the past 20 years the gains made among children are not flowing on to adult dentitions and our aging population will place increasing deman

Abstract:

Background: Regular access to dental services is a well-known factor in the oral health and development of children.1 As such, the United States federal government mandates each state to include dental services for children enrolled in Medicaid through the age of 21. Despite this mandate, the utilization rate of dental services among Medicaid enrolled children has remained remarkably low.2 In July 2005, Virginia implemented a sweeping Medicaid policy reform titled “Smiles for Children,” specifically aiming to increase Medicaid pediatric dental utilization rates.

This cross-sectional, non-experimental study evaluates associations between cohort membership, type of dental coverage, and utilization of dental services in all patients age 47 and over who received dental care at Virginia Commonwealth University’s (VCU) School of Dentistry in 2011. Structural Lag Theory poses that society’s institutions lag behind the actuality of a healthy and capable older adult population. The two dynamisms of the Structural Lag Theory were used for this study. The Dynamism of Changing Lives is represented by Cohort differences. Cohort differences include cohort siz

Abstract:

The rhetoric of primary health care, health promotion and health service integration is ubiquitous in health policy development in post-apartheid South Africa. However the form in which oral health promotion elements have actually been incorporated into other areas of health care in South Africa and the extent to which they have been implemented, remains unclear. The central aim of this research was to critically analyse oral health promotion elements in health policies in South Africa and determine the extent to which they have been implemented.

Abstract:

One of the most important factors in accessing dental care is having dental insurance. For people with low incomes, Medicaid is the main source of health insurance. Medi-Cal is California’s Medicaid program. Adult dental services were mostly eliminated in Medi-Cal in 2009 due to the economic downturn and partially restored in 2014. The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of change in Medi-Cal dental coverage, specifically the partial restoration of adult dental coverage in 2014, on dental care utilization among Medi-Cal beneficiaries.

Abstract:

Dental caries, popularly known as tooth decay or cavities, is among the world's most common health problems. When caught early, it is also one of the most easily resolvable. Yet, advanced decay is a trenchant marker of social inequality and a major contributor to the maldistribution of physical pain and psychosocial suffering. Why? Access to dental care within the U.S. model of fee-for-service dental private practice follows existing lines of social stratification.

Abstract:

Malgré le peu de fondements écrits consacrés à la justice dans le texte de la Constitution du 4 octobre 1958, le Conseil constitutionnel, en réalisant un travail d’actualisation à partir de la Déclaration des droits de l’homme et du citoyen, a permis l’émergence d’un droit constitutionnel processuel, construit autour de principes directeurs. Ceux-ci peuvent être répartis dans trois catégories : deux principales, selon que l’acteur du procès prioritairement concerné soit le juge ou les parties et une troisième, complémentaire, celle des garanties procédurales, permettant de favoriser les qualit

Objective: To determine the dental treatment needs of Canadians and how they are distributed. Methods: A secondary analysis of data from the Canadian Health Measures Survey was undertaken. Weights were applied to make the data nationally representative. Bivariate and multivariate regressions were used to identify predictors of need. Sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values were calculated to compare self-reported and clinically determined needs. Results: Of the 34.2% who required dental treatment, most needed restorative (20.4%) and preventive (13.7%) care. The stronge

For this reason, corporations usually hire more staff and equipments to shorten customers’ waiting time, but it costs corporations too much. A better way to overcome this problem is using appointment policy for managing capacity. Appointment policy is a very common application in service business, especially in medical service. There are some papers using simulation technique for appointment policy research. But this paper tries to build an evaluation model o

Abstract:

In the United States, prescription opioids have been a major problem that contributed to the opioid crisis in the country. As dentists prescribe analgesics routinely for dental pain management, further investigation into opioid and non-opioid prescription patterns by dentists on a national level is needed. This research project aimed to examine 1) the trends in opioid and non-opioid analgesic prescriptions by dentists in the US,2) to examine the racial-ethnic disparities in receiving an opioid and non-opioid prescription from a dental professional, 3) the effect of federal Rescheduling of hydr

The health situation of Timor-Leste was particularly poor during both Portuguese colonial administration and Indonesian occupation. There was no national oral health policy or strategy during the four and a half centuries of Portuguese colonisation or the 24 years of Indonesian occupation. The country health profile in 2002 showed that life expectancy ranged from 50-58 years, and was combined with high infant mortality rates of 78-149 per 1,000 live births, and under-5 year mortality rates of 124-201 per 1,000 live births.

Abstract:

M.A.<br>Mbeki’s controversial views on AIDS have given way to allegations that the South African government is in a state of denial over the AIDS epidemic. However, the long wave nature of the epidemic suggests that the present extent of the South African AIDS epidemic is the result of successive governments’ failures to respond adequately to HIV and AIDS. If denial is at least in part to blame for the recent government complacency and inaction, this would suggest that denial has been a recurring component of official responses to HIV and AIDS since the first two South African AIDS deaths have
