Popis: | Data from the 1985-1986 National Survey of Oral Health in U.S. Adults and Seniors showed that the oral health of Hispanic American adults and seniors was comparable to that of black adults and seniors. White adults and seniors had better oral health than their minority counterparts for all measures observed and were better able to afford dental care. |
