The MDA has developed a video to demonstrate the devastating effect that cuts to public health programs imposed by the Minnesota legislature are having on underserved Minnesotans and the dental clinics that are committed to serving them. Watch this video to see the passion and commitment of safety net providers and the valuable role they play in providing dental care to the underserved.

On February 24, dental professionals will be brought together as one strong voice for Dental Day at the Capitol. This one-day event addresses oral health care issues. Key legislators will be speaking to our group so we can emphasize the importance of the issues that we will be discussing and to hear their points of view. Issues we will be working on include: Critical Access cuts, adult dental benefit set cuts, DHS accountability toward oral health programs and limitation of fees for non-covered services. Please join us! Please RSVP before February 15.
