- $114,007 spent. The Coalition continues to serve as the connecting hub for the oral health stakeholders in NH. Focusing on connecting, disseminating information, convening, and collaboratively training stakeholders and the public on oral health systems, advancement, and resources within the state. Throughout 2025 we continued network outreach and training on NH Smiles Medicaid Adult Dental Benefit with a focus on providing information on the benefit, how to access care, the numbers and populations served, and the challenges and opportunities moving forward. Participants in trainings and discussion forums included the public, oral health program staff and providers, program decision makers, and others. From a state infrastructure perspective, we worked with the new Medicaid dental director and public health oral health program manager to provide them a comprehensive orientation to the history of the extension of community-based and school-based oral health programs that bring dental and oral heath services into the local communities, thereby increasing access for those with low incomes, and who are un- or under-insured. Additionally, completed a series of issue brief drafts that can be finalized for dissemination via both print and electronics, on the topics of community-based dental and oral health access, community-water fluoridation, and minimally invasive dental care. In December of 2025, we capped off the year with our annual conference bringing together medical/dental providers, educators, funders, program managers, policy makers, the public and others. This was attended by eighty who participated as speakers, panelists, and attendees.
