Abstract

The rate of child abuse and neglect cases per population may have been decreasing, but there have been increases in the actual number of cases. A review of federal reports serves as an alert for dental practitioners to maintain their vigilance as 1) primary care providers of children, and 2) mandated reporters of child abuse.
