A two-tier emergency dental services delivery system was developed following the October 1973 War, based on large mobile dental clinics (definitive restorations) and portable field units (emergency treatments). The increased demand for definitive restorations at the front lines, the mountainous terrain, and the extreme climatic conditions encountered during the Lebanon War, 1982, necessitated the development of a third alternative. A standard, compact module, either truck-mounted or helicopter-lifted, was outfitted as a fully equipped dental clinic according to Dental Corps specifications.
