Severe mental illness (SMI) is a life-altering disease that affects people just as they are beginning to discover the freedoms of adulthood. In addition to the psychosocial challenges, many confront a myriad of oral health issues including xerostomia and tooth loss. Affected individuals often do not seek oral health care services thereby developing new oral health problems and exacerbating existing disease. These patients need special care and understanding when they seek oral health care services.
