This article, published in the Journal of Public Health Dentistry, describes a typology of program models for expanding access to dental services for people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA). These programs serve communities with limited access and high unmet need for oral health care, such as rural areas, low-income, and racial/ethnic minorities. The typology can assist program planners and medical and dental care providers with service delivery strategies for addressing the unmet need for oral health care in their area.
