Abstract
Data from the 2007 National Survey of Children's Health were used to investigate how autism spectrum disorder (ASD) symptom severity and comorbidity are associated with the dental health needs of children. The results of this study help provide insights into the greater oral needs of the increasing population of children with ASD that reside in our communities and their dependency upon local practitioners for treatment.
