2009 Grant Recipients
"
I want all of you to know how much I have been able to accomplish as a consequence of your funding of my first project,
the thrust of which was to train primary care medical providers to include primary caries prevention
(including an oral exam, a risk assessment, application of fluoride varnish per ADA recommendations)
in the well-child medical examination.
Since that time I have received funding or pledges from two of Minnesota's local health plans,
Delta Dental and the National Children's Oral Health Foundation.
As a consequence, thousands of children have received dental care and to date over 130 clinics have been contacted to
participate in my programs.
In conclusion, I wish to reiterate that the initial financial support of my project was the catalyst that got these activities in motion."
