Article Description

Gary D. Oyster, DDS, emphasizes the importance of political action for dentists, highlighting the pressures from insurance companies and workforce demands. He stresses that building relationships with legislators through contributions to state and federal political action committees (PACs) is crucial for effective advocacy. Oyster encourages dentists to participate in fundraisers and engage with legislators to influence dental-related policies. He notes that only a small percentage of dentists currently contribute to PACs and urges more to join to strengthen their collective influence.
