Why Was This Summit Produced?
Your hosts, Scott Saunders, DDS and Bonnie Benjamin spent over 18 months asking people just like you what they wanted from health care and dental care; what they weren’t getting; what their unanswered questions were; what they were most concerned about, and what they defined as good health.
This Summit is the result of that research.
