    Journal: J Calif Dent Assoc; 2001 Jun; 29(6):424-32. PubMed ID: 11484298.
    Abstract:
    This article provides the dentist with a review of the three developmental disabilities that do not have mental retardation as a diagnostic component: epilepsy, cerebral palsy, and autism. Discussion focuses on diagnostic criteria and other dental and medical considerations. A greater understanding of developmental disabilities allows the dentist to offer care in the dental office when feasible or to understand and develop referral relationships with colleagues who utilize the hospital operating room to provide comprehensive care.
