Oral Health Kansas and the Kansas Health Institute (KHI) collaborated to develop a new report to research dental insurance coverage and unmet dental needs in Kansas. The results showed that 64% of Kansans reported having dental insurance at the time of the survey, and there were significant gaps in dental insurance coverage based on race and ethnicity. The study results will help to identify future policy and research implications to continue increasing access to dental care in our state.
