Understanding Māori Oral Health Providers
Māori Oral Health Providers are oral health services and practitioners grounded in kaupapa Māori values and approaches to health and wellbeing, supporting whānau and communities across Aotearoa.
Māori Oral Health Providers support whānau wellbeing, strengthen access to care, and build the trust and relationships that help communities stay connected to their oral health.
As part of Aotearoa’s wider oral health workforce, they put relationships, community and hauora at the centre of care, alongside clinical practice. They also play an important role in improving access to care and supporting more equitable oral health outcomes for whānau.
