Evolution of women's oral health.

The current focus on women's oral health emerged from emphasis on the women's health movement. Provision of high quality oral health care throughout a woman's life span requires the enhancement of multiple factors. Future progress will depend on partnering among various constituencies; education at the predoctoral, postdoctoral, and continuing education levels; expansion of the scope of gender-specific research; and development of innovative modalities for the diagnosis, prevention, treatment, and utilization of clinical dental services for women.

Eating disorders in women's oral health.

Eating disorders such as anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and binge-eating disorder are a serious concern in women's oral health and a clinical challenge to dental professionals. Each of these eating disorders presents with unique patterns of psychologic, medical, and dental characteristics. Appropriate dental treatment is based in the multidisciplinary facets of these conditions. The dental team should be mindful that individuals who suffer from these disorders may relapse into previous negative eating behaviors. The knowledgeable dental professional may be able to intercept these habits through regular recall intervals and thorough examination.
