High Quality Oral Health - An FDI World Dental Federation Objective

What is it about?

It is my pleasure to write to you as the new President of the European Regional Organization of our FDI World Dental Federation, and I would like to take this opportunity to share some insights from the most recent developments in international policies for our profession. Globalization is a buzzword we have been hearing repeatedly in the media, and yes, the world is most certainly converging in terms of sharing information, data transfer, transport, trade and international financial flows. At the same time, the regions and nations of this globalized world still differ enormously in terms of their standards of living and, not in the least, their access to health care. Reducing global health inequality and tackling global health problems effectively, efficiently and sustainably were the objectives of the annual congress of the FDI World Dental Federation, held in San Francisco from 2 to 8 September, 2019. I would like to take this opportunity to tell you about the most important resolutions adopted at this meeting.
