Abstract

Objective: This thesis investigated oral health equity among middle-aged and older adults using
two complementary studies: a scoping review and a secondary data analysis. The first study
examined how oral health equity has been conceptualized and measured globally. The second
identified key predictors of oral health among aging Canadians using longitudinal data, focusing
on patterns of (in)equity over time.
