Interdisciplinary Oral Health for Those with Special Health Care Needs

In order for us to understand our current situation of the oral health condition of those with special needs, we need to review the history of how education was presented and what has been done. The American Dental Association, Commission on Dental Accreditation (CODA) is recognized by the US Department of Education. CODA is responsible for the accreditation of predoctoral dental education programs (leading to the DDS or DMD degree), advanced dental education programs, and allied dental education programs that are fully operational or have attained “Initial Accreditation” status, including programs offered via distance education.
