The placement of implants in patients who are medically or intellectually compromised.
Recent legislative changes now insist on equal access to care for all patients. Those with medical or intellectual conditions are entitled to high quality dental treatment and this case series aims to show how this can be achieved. Important aspects for successful provision of this care include the use of adjuncts to deliver treatment, the inclusion of carers/family and a team approach for all those involved in these cases.
