The Harris Poll for XP Health recently published their white paper The State of Vision Health 2023. This includes an original survey of 1,009 full-time employed adults in the U.S. over the age of 25.
Delta Dental recently released their Senior Mental and Oral Health Report. This survey of over 1,000 older Americans found an “inextricable link” between older adults’ mental and oral health, with mental health challenges contributing to a lack of oral care. If dental care is neglected, then it can create a vicious circle and exacerbate feelings of depression.

Disparities in oral health are found in many populations including people of color, low-income or uninsured people, and veterans.
