WHO WE ARE
Tooth decay — the disease that causes cavities — is 2 to 3 times more common than childhood obesity or asthma. And for adults, dental disease can affect their overall health and ability to work. Michigan Oral Health Coalition works to create a large, interconnected network of national, state and local advocates dedicated to improving oral health for all Michiganders.
