poverty except:
A. high infant mortality rate.
B. frequent use of Emergency Departments.
C. consultation with folk healers.

Answer: D
Explanation:
Dental problems are prevalent because of the lack of preventive care and access to care.

not have access to
care might come to the Emergency Department when in labor. Those in poverty are likely
to use Emergency
Departments because they may not be turned away. Those in poverty might also turn to
folk healers or other
persons in their community for care who might be easier to access and might not demand
payment.Health
