Abstract
Oral health is a significant health concern for elders and others in long-term care settings. Daily oral care practices and optimal oral health are related to the well-being and quality of life that long-term care residents deserve. Pathways to providing preventive oral health services will gain momentum as dental hygienists become an integral part of the long-term care setting health care team.
