Abstract
The eating disorders are a group of related but distinct disturbances in eating behaviour with wide-ranging effects. This first part describes the epidemiology, aetiology, general clinical features and specific dental sequelae associated with the eating disorders. Part 2 discusses psychological aspects of management as well as dental treatment. Dental health can be compromised in patients with an eating disorder. Dentists should understand the medical, psychological and dental features and competently manage any secondary dental problems.
