A look at our community. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. How similar are we all? How different? Should we change how we view patients with "special needs"? Are people simply neurotypically different? Do we need to learn to accept those with various (dis)abilities? How can the dental community embrace those with differing abilities?
Learning Objectives:
Define what beauty means to you.
Describe how those differing abilities can add to our society as a whole.
Describe ways the dental community can embrace those who have (dis)abilities.
