Dental Statistics and Research Unit (DSRU) - Public Perceptions of Dentistry
Public perceptions of dentistry: stimulus or barrier to better oral health
Introduction
This monograph has been developed from
papers that were presented at the AIHW Dental Statistics and Research Unit workshop that focused on
Public Perceptions of Dentistry. Its publication aims to provide a record of the substantive material
presented at the workshop which arose out of components of the statistical collections maintained by the Unit.
It is hoped that Public Perceptions of Dentistry: Stimulus or Barrier to Better Oral Health will
stimulate discussion around public perceptions of dentistry and how they might be improved. This report will
be informative and stimulating to those who are interested in improving the oral health and wellbeing of Australians.
