Huong Le, Sherry Hirota, Julia Liou, Tiffany Sitlin, Curtis Le, Thu Quach
The author discusses oral health disparities among Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders. Topics include the impact of poor oral health on the quality of life among racial-ethnic minority populations, limited-English-proficient populations, and low-income populations, the lack of research data on Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders despite both groups being the fastest-growing population in the U.S., and access to dental care at federally qualified health centers.
