The scope of outpatient hospital dentistry is broad and embraces a full range of patient care as well as education and investigative activities. The ambulatory dental service provides an ideal setting for the care of medically compromised patients and treatment requiring a multidisciplinary approach. The hospital dental staff and administration are especially well qualified to bring dignified, high quality, total health care to patients and educational programs to the profession. These factors are paramount in formulating a strategy for meeting the future health care needs of our population.
