ASTDD State Oral Health Plan Comparison Tool Description – The document lists states with up-to-date plans that are on the tool, states with out-of-date plans that are on the tool, and states that do not have a state oral health improvement plan.
ASTDD State Oral Health Improvement Plan Comparison Tool - The ASTDD State Oral Health Improvement Plan Comparison Tool identifies a set of State Oral Health Improvement Plan strategy indicators within a conceptual framework among the three public health core functions and Ten Essential Public Health Services to Promote Oral Health. The tool allows for cross-state comparisons and features descriptive statistics detailing the extent of each state's oral health activities and relationship to one another. Every state is listed on the top and also on the tab on the bottom. You can find your state by clicking on either area. The Strategies are on the left side of the tool. The National summary tab gives the compilation of all the states. The number identified across from the strategies show whether a state has that indicator. New and updated state plans will be added by ASTDD as they are received.

This guide was originally developed at the Contra Costa County (California) Health Services Department Prevention Program to assist public health programs in developing effective community coalitions for injury prevention. Although the examples given in this paper are specific to injury prevention coalitions, most can be applied to coalitions working on a variety of health-related issues. Written in the format of eight specific steps, this paper attempts to give structure to a process that is somewhat variable. (December 2018)
