Abstract:
Since its inception, the Community Dental Service has evolved from a child-centred organization to its much wider remit of current times.

Specialization in community or special needs dentistry is not an option at the moment. However, a number of appropriate training opportunities leading to further qualifications are highlighted and are becoming more readily accessible.
