    Summary

    Dental care access for handicapped individuals is challenging due to social and psychological barriers. Addressing these requires dentists to understand patient perceptions and their own reactions to disability.

    Area of Science:

    • Oral health
    • Psychology
    • Sociology

    Background:

    • Handicapped patients face significant challenges accessing adequate dental care.
    • Beyond physical accessibility, social and psychological factors impede dental care acceptance.
    • Orofacial defects present unique challenges due to their visibility and impact on social interaction.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To explore the social and psychological barriers faced by handicapped patients in obtaining dental care.
    • To emphasize the importance of dentists understanding patient perceptions and their own reactions.
    • To highlight the specific difficulties posed by orofacial defects in the context of dental treatment.

    Main Methods:

    • Qualitative analysis of patient-dentist interactions.
