Did I possibly miss something?

Though Dumbledore does not explicitly say so, it appears the  
link was broken when Harry threw off Voldemort's possession at 
the end of the battle. Notice that Harry's scar does not hurt  
afterwards, although Voldemort must certainly have been 
punishing people right and left after the fiasco.  I don't think 
that the danger is over completely, but evidently Voldemort's 
aversion to the feeling he encountered in Harry's mind is so 
strong at present that he will risk no contact with it.
