Children are considered to be special if they cannot, within the limits, play, learn, work or do things other than of their age can do or if they are hindered in achieving their full physical, mental and social potentialities. In recent years, the dental and medical professions have been joined by parental groups, community and national health associations' thereby increasing concern regarding the problem of providing oral health care to the mentally or physically disabled children. Parents are being informed of the good restorative and preventive dental care for children. This increasing concern is the result of the realization that individuals with a disability, whether developmental or acquired, are entitled to the opportunity to achieve appropriate habilitation, to enable them to realize their maximal level of functioning and to assist them in "normalizing" their lives.
