Organisational (missed appointments) | Introduce drop-in periods (allow people to access dental services when ready or able to consult) |
Biomedical (non-covered treatments) | Extend coverage to endodontic treatments |
Financial (low fees) | Raise fees paid to dentists to an “acceptable” level |
General issue | Reinforce dentists’ sensitivity to the situation of people on social assistance through the development of educational academic programs |
