Dr. Burris Talks with President Barack Obama on Dentistry in Health Care Reform

Earlier today Dr. Burris attended the Presidential Town Hall Meeting at Green Valley High School in Henderson, Nevada. Dr. Burris was in town for the 2010 Ortho2 Users Group Meeting in Las Vegas. We've included a clip of the Town Hall Meeting in which Dr. Burris got a chance to ask President Barack Obama about his vision for how dentistry fits in with the larger framework for health care reform.

The president then expressed his hopes to include dental care in the health care reform that is being proposed, especially for children. We are so excited that Dr. Burris got a chance to talk with the president; he was even able to make President Obama laugh!
