See Where Minnesota Ranks In States with the Best & Worst Dental Health
Which state has the pearliest whites in the land? The website Wallethub put together a list of which states have the best teeth.
WalletHub's data team used 23 key indicators of dental health to come up with the rankings. The data ranges from the share of kids who visited a dentist in the past year to dental treatment costs, and even the share of adults with low life satisfaction due to their oral condition.
Minnesota takes the top spot with a score of 82.2, while Wisconsin comes in at a close second with 77.85. Minnesota's dental habits and care rank overall at the number one spot, but the state comes in third with oral health. Wisconsin comes in at seventh with oral health.
Here is the entire top ten list:
- Minnesota
- Wisconsin
- Illinois
- North Dakota
- Connecticut
- Massachusetts
- Michigan
- District of Colombia
- Iowa
- Ohio
