    Journal: J Tenn Dent Assoc; 2005; 85(4):25-7. PubMed ID: 16568828.
    Abstract:
    Since 1990, Tennessee has been ranked among the states with a series of health and social difficulties. In addition, there are more than 56,000 children with disabilities in the state. In an effort to personalize these findings, the numbers of children with disabilities are presented by city, metropolitan area, county, and congressional districts. There are numerous difficulties associated with the delivery of dental care to these children with special needs. If all dentists were willing to help, however, each practitioner would need to care for twenty of these youngsters.
