Short Abstract:
Good afternoon Chairman Simpson, Ranking Member Moran and Committee Members. I am Dr. Henry Fields, Chairman of the Council on Government Affairs of the American Dental Association (ADA). I am a Professor and the Division Chair of Orthodontics at The Ohio State University. I also have a private orthodontics practice and I am an attending dentist and Chief of Orthodontics at Nationwide Children's Hospital in Columbus.
The ADA, which represents 157,000 dentists, appreciates the opportunity to comment on the oral health issues that affect American Indians and Alaska Natives (AI/ ANs ), as well as the dentists and oral health care providers who serve in the Indian Health Service (IHS) and tribal dental programs.
