There is not a single day that come to us examples in the implementation of policies for oral health, when we speak of Brazil. For now, it would be rather interesting to know what the politicians able to have equal gestures not interested by their countrymen.
Unfortunately, looking at the national picture, which does not lack there are unscrupulous politicians that the cost of taxes that we all pay, are dedicated to major festivals and tours by air free for people of the third age, but there are forgotten what the poorer both need: positive discrimination in the quality of access to health care (because it is so the strength of our current democracy, expressed in the votes during the elections).
