About
the Center
The
Center for Research to Evaluate and Eliminate Dental Disparities (CREEDD)
was created in 2001 with joint funding from the National Institute of
Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) and the National Center on
Minority Health and Health Disparities (NCMHD). CREEDD is one of five
national centers for oral health disparities. The funding for these
centers is the single largest expenditure in the history of NIDCR. This
represents a firm national commitment to reduce dental disparities across
the nation.
