  • Title: Oral health needs of persons with physical or mental disabilities.
    Author: Tesini DA, Fenton SJ.
    Journal: Dent Clin North Am; 1994 Jul; 38(3):483-98. PubMed ID: 7926199.
    Abstract:
    Dentists who examine the needs of their patient population will recognize that the oral health concerns of persons with physical or mental disabilities demand more of their knowledge and skills than any other segment of their practice. To deliver quality, comprehensive care, the clinician must be updated on prevention and treatment techniques. A reference table in this article focuses on awareness of medical issues and oral conditions and the associations and interactions between them. Access to care for persons with disabilities is discussed also.
