CANADIAN ORAL HEALTH INITIATIVE

Picture

CANADIAN ORAL HEALTH INITIATIVE​

The Canadian Oral Health Initiative (COHI) was developed in 2004-2006 as a means to address the disparity between the oral health of First Nations and Inuit and that of the general Canadian population.

​COHI focuses on the prevention of dental disease and promotion of good oral health practices. The goal of COHI is to shift the emphasis from a primarily treatment based approach to a more balanced prevention and treatment focus. The initial focus for oral health promotion will be directed at three target groups:
  • Pregnant women and primary caregivers
  • Pre-school children, 0-4 years of age
  • Schooled children, 5-7 years of age
