Hidden Pain: America’s Oral Health Crisis

Basic Oral-Care Inequalities in America

The Jon C. Burr Foundation developed this short documentary to show the systemic effects of poor oral health. A lack of access to oral health care results in pain, suffering, and enormous cost.

Lunder-Dineen partnered with the Jon C. Burr Foundation to highlight the inequalities that Americans face without basic oral health care.

This film has been distributed to dental schools, community centers, churches, and legislative offices in order to educate the public and encourage action. View the documentary to meet the experts who are trying to address this health crisis.
