Opis

Children play a vital role in the present and future of the nation. Impaired deficits among them can cause an adverse effect upon their ability to perform routine activities typical for the person's stage of development. Oral health is an important aspect of health for all children, and is more important for children with special deficits. Inadequate dental care, poor dental public health measurements, inability to be educated and communicated from the dental professionals may have negative influence on their oral health status which may lead to higher prevalence and severity of oral disease among them when compared to the general population. These individuals' dental health may be influenced by age, severity of impairment, and their living conditions. There is a need of primary dental health care for all children with sensory deficits.
