Abstract
The nation's oral health is improving, but I believe the gains are tar dy, particularly among children. The Government declares that primary responsibility for good health lies with the individual, but one third of the population cannot undertake it. Speedier advance in oral healt h requires giving first place to society's (government's) role.
