    Journal: J Calif Dent Assoc; 2001 Jun; 29(6):415-23. PubMed ID: 11484297.
    Abstract:
    This article provides the dentist with a background on developmental disabilities, services, and issues related to statutory and regulatory requirements, with a focus on mental retardation and Down syndrome. Down syndrome has mental retardation as a component, yet requires additional emphasis because of its prevalence and associated craniofacial manifestations. Also discussed are treatment considerations.
