In February, the ProVention Health Foundation (the Foundation established to support NACDD’s work) convened a Thought Leader Roundtable on Oral Health and Chronic Disease in Older Adults. Invited participants included Chronic Disease Directors and Dental Directors from 13 states as well as a diverse group of national partners representing chronic disease, oral health, older adults, academia, and research.

Read the report from the roundtable, which summarizes the themes and recommendations that were identified related to addressing oral health and chronic disease in this growing population. Funding for this roundtable was provided by Glaxo Smith Kline.
