The Colorado Health Institute, with support from the Caring for Colorado Foundation and Delta Dental of Colorado Foundation, developed a new report - Open Wide for Opportunity: Medicaid's Leadership in a New Vision of Oral Health for Colorado - to examine the evidence behind oral health strategies, what other states have pursued, and what it would take for Colorado to implement its own approach to improving health in Colorado.
