“The announcement today by the Minister, Mrs Justine Elliott outlining steps to improve the oral health of nursing home residents is most welcome. It demonstrates the first stage of a concerted effort to improve the quality of life of the aged who for too long have had to endure poor oral health and a poor quality of life due to dental pain and discomfort”, Dr Neil Hewson, President of the Australian Dental Association Inc (ADA) said today.
