Impact of Pediatric Dental Resident Availability in the Pediatric Emergency Department.
The purpose of this study is to describe the impact of Delaware's first pediatric dental residency program on treatment of patients presenting to the pediatric emergency department (PED). ⋯ Pediatric dental resident availability in the PED significantly increased dental consultation and intervention. A significantly higher percentage of PED patients received definitive treatment at point of service without requiring referral to another facility.
