Abstract

The availability of general information about the economic, health and social well being of Hispanic children in the United States is essential for dental and other health practitioners. Only recently have government and private agencies moved beyond the standard presentation of information by traditional “white, black and other” groupings. The need is to develop an increased awareness of the different factors which affect children in general, and in particular Hispanic children. An overview is carried out to stimulate such an effort.
