The council is seeking volunteers to advise on how to educate dental professionals about the oral healthcare needs of the growing U.S. senior population, according to ADA News. The National Elder Care Advisory Committee will also aim to provide guidance on how to respond to those needs, as well as suggest policy recommendations related to positive oral health outcomes for the elderly.

Interested applicants should email their curriculum vitae and a statement of interest to [email protected]. The deadline is March 22.
