Oral Health

Healthy People 2010, Focus Area 21

Oral health is a major health issue for both adults and children in Tioga County, particularly for those with less education and lower incomes. The Tioga County Partnership for Community Health, through the Kids First Work Group and Tioga Dental Services are working hard to improve and promote oral health. These efforts are described in detail in the report Oral Health in Tioga County, PA, and corresponding fact sheet, both published in November 2004.
