Abstract:
It is the author's opinion that by educating dentists on the warning signs of suicide and the protocol for managing suspected cases, the tragic deaths of many adolescents may be prevented. Educational material should be presented in the undergraduate dental curriculum and periodically reinforced in the dental literature and continuing education courses. Dentists and their staffs must be constantly alert to warning signs of this ever-increasing problem. Suspected cases should be thoroughly investigated and followed up.
