These resources provide information for planning oral health programs for target audiences that include HIV, primary care, and dental providers interested in expanding or replicating innovative models of oral health care for PLWHA.
Oral Health Care
Oral health care includes diagnostic, preventive, and therapeutic services provided by a dental health care professional licensed to provide health care in the State or jurisdiction, including general dental practitioners, dental specialists, and dental hygienists, as well as licensed and trained and dental assistants.
The Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (RWHAP) supports oral health services through all program parts as well as the Part F Dental Reimbursement Program (DRP) and Community-Based Dental Partnership Program (CBDPP). See the RWHAP Maps for details.
