Advancing Oral Health Equity!

Coloradans know oral health is important, but too many struggle to access the care they need, find it unaffordable, or feel mistreated when they go to a dentist office

CCHI is working to ensure oral health gets the attention it needs and that community members can drive change for oral health equity.

• 73% say dental care is too expensive
• 47% of Coloradans needing immediate care are waiting a month or more to get it
• 1 in 4 Coloradans that have not sought care cite fear, anxiety, judgement, or mistreatment
• Only 13% of Coloradans report having no barriers to getting the oral health care they need
