Deinstitutionalization of individuals with mental retardation and developmental disabilities has increased the demand for dental services for these patients by community practitioners. There are numerous difficulties associated with the delivery of care to this population with special needs. Nevertheless, a county-by-county review for New York State indicates that in most instances, if all dentists are willing to help, there would be a relatively small number of these patients per dental practitioner.
智力迟钝和发育障碍患者的去机构化增加了社区从业者为这些患者提供牙科服务的需求。为这一特殊需求人群提供护理存在诸多困难。然而，对纽约州逐个县的审查表明，在大多数情况下，如果所有牙医都愿意提供帮助，那么每位牙科从业者面对的这类患者数量会相对较少。
