Eating disorder

The role of dentistry in the treatment of eating disorders (anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa and eating disorder without further  specification - UNS).

The overall goals of the project are to implement knowledge in both medical and dental care about methods for early diagnosis, prevention and treatment of dental injuries as a result of eating disorder. The long-term goal is to be able to use dental care as part of the  multidisciplinary care of patients with eating disorders.
