Holmes, CDA President, 'Dental disease -- usual- ly gum disease -- is the most common chronic health problem in Canada today and will affect more . than nine out of every ten Canadians. More than half of all Canadians over 60 are completely toothless, and gum disease is respon- sible for 70 per cent of all adult tooth loss. Fortunate- ly, like cavities, gum disease is almost entirely preventive. The first step is awareness. Increasing public awareness of the problem is the most impor- tant job for dentists today."" The Canadian Dental Association is working to maximize public awareness of dental problems and to foster a positive, realistic perspective on dental health. Its Dental Awareness Program in- cludes an information poster and a national magazine supplement scheduled for the May issue of Chatelaine magazine.
