Dentistry and bioterrorism
Abstract
Dentistry's role in responding to bioterrorism and other catastrophic events is evolving and may involve a wide range of activities. Organized dentistry. local dental societies. and interested individuals should make local emergency response planners aware of the services the dental profession can provide and should work to integrate dental resources to strengthen the disaster response capacity of community health care systems. With effective planning, education, and training, dentists can play a significant role in responding to acts of bioterrorism or other unforeseen events.
