The Academy of Dentistry for the Handicapped and the American Association of Hospital Dentists have developed and approved guidelines to train residents in general practice residency programs on dental care for the patient with special needs. These proposed guidelines are intended to prepare the general practice resident to have a broad degree of involvement with the physical, emotional, and psychological issues faced by the patients with mild to severe disabling conditions. Didactic and clinical objectives are presented for 12 content areas of clinical practice.
