The letter addresses concerns about dental care for Mr. Virgil Queton of Carnegie, Oklahoma, at the Indian Health Center. It explains that due to limited resources, priority is given to children and emergency cases, causing delays in providing routine dental services to adults. Mr. Queton was unable to receive dental services on the day of his appointment but can arrange for them at a future date. The letter is signed by Emery A. Johnson, Assistant Surgeon General and Director of the Indian Health Service.
