我最近发布了有史以来第一份关于口腔健康的卫生部长报告。这是自1964年以来发布的第51份卫生部长报告,当时路德·特里发布了他关于烟草和健康的里程碑式报告。这些报告帮助构建了关于重要健康问题的科学框架,帮助教育、激励和动员公众更有效地处理这些问题。我希望这份报告能产生类似的影响。当我们谈论口腔健康时,我们谈论的不仅仅是健康的牙齿。我们说的是整个口腔,包括牙龈,硬腭和软腭,舌头,嘴唇,咀嚼肌,下巴-简而言之,所有的口腔组织和结构,使我们能够说话和微笑,嗅觉,味觉,触觉,咀嚼和吞咽,并通过面部表情传达情感世界。
I recently issued the first-ever Surgeon General's report on oral health. This is the 51st Surgeon General's report issued since 1964, when Luther Terry issued his landmark report on tobacco and health.
