We walked for another Christmas and the beginning of a new year. At this point we remember all our family and friends, to whom we renew our desire for peace and health.
Also this blog want a better year in 2011 for all Portuguese, and that the right to oral health is devoted to all, without limitations of social or economic.
Installed in the political governance of the country, and particularly the Members represented in Parliament, the Minister of Health, the Lord Director - General for Health and the President of the Republic, we want to fulfill their obligations for positions that were elected and that morally understand that oral health is a fundamental and unquestionable human. We ask all politicians to join efforts and determine the general population to access oral health care, particularly of poor people, children, young people and older people and the socially excluded. Who like to have a child without the slightest chance to have their teeth properly treated? Someone is able to calculate the human suffering, physical and psychological, that a child has to carry throughout their lives by a simple lack of adequate treatment and oral health worth?
Oral health professionals are asked to contribute to improving the oral health of all the Portuguese, without discrimination based on social groups or economic classes, their training was paid for by taxes of all Portuguese who work at that morally should also provide oral health care to all people no matter what their possibilities.
Charity in oral health is not no resolution of the problem, rather it serves to perpetuate existing problems.
Portugal can not remain the poor relation of the oral health of European Union countries. After all, dental caries is a disease that can and should be eradicated from Portugal.
