The mission of Special Care in Dentistry is to provide a forum for research findings, case reports, clinical techniques and scholarly discussion relevant to the oral health and oral health care of “special care patients.” The designation of the special care patient is not limited to hospitalized, disabled or older individuals, but includes all patients for whom oral health and oral health care are complicated by physical, emotional, financial and/or access factors.
