Oral health spotlighted in Press Club State of the Older Nation report address

In his appearance at the National Press Club this week to talk about the latest State of the Older Nation report, COTA Australia's the Hon. Christopher Pyne's talked about how oral health is the health service older Australians are least able to access.

He cited the link between a lack of access to oral healthcare and serious health complications later in life, the findings of this key report underscoring that the ADA's continued advocacy work on the need for a Senior Dental Benefits Schedule remains vitally relevant and necessary.

You can watch the discussion of oral health care between 13:10 and about 13:45 in this recording of the presentation.
