A recent study conducted by WalletHub has ranked New Mexico among the top states for dental health. The study evaluated various factors such as access to dental care, overall oral health, and habits like tooth brushing and flossing.
New Mexico ranked 13th out of 50 states in the study, showing that residents of the state are making efforts to maintain good oral hygiene. The study also found that the state has a high number of dentists per capita, making it easier for residents to access dental care when needed.
While New Mexico performed well overall, there is still room for improvement in certain areas. The study identified a higher rate of adults with untreated dental issues in the state compared to the national average. This highlights the importance of regular dental check-ups and preventive care to maintain good oral health.
Overall, New Mexico’s ranking in the WalletHub study demonstrates the state’s commitment to dental health and shows that efforts to improve access to care are paying off. Residents are encouraged to continue practicing good oral hygiene habits to further improve the state’s ranking in future studies.
