Client perspectives on an Aboriginal community led oral health service in rural Australia

ConclusionThe implementation of a new community led oral health service to Northern NSW Aboriginal communities was shown here to be well‐utilised, respected and in an area of high need. The collaborative approach could be continued to be utilised to implement targeted, community led health promotion programs to facilitate and encourage better oral health practices for the Aboriginal children in these communities.
