Oral Health and Dental Treatment of Adults with Disability, Problem and Solution

Maxwell Christopher Graham Manley

People with disability have a poorer level of oral health than those who do not have a disability. This may be partly due to reasons of reduction in preventive care but also lesser opportunities for the provision of restorative dentistry. The use of a special management technique using intravenous conscious sedation provides a valuable opportunity to open doors that can help reduce the inequality that is experienced by people with disability.
