Dental care for children with autism spectrum disorders

1641

Abstract

Questions of the need for treatment of oral diseases, problems and characteristics of providing dental care for children with developmental disorders, especially with autism spectrum disorders, both in Russia and abroad have very little coverage. Usual conditions for dental care for these children are unacceptable. A clear, scientifi¬cally based system of dental care is needed to reduce the number of diseases of the oral cavity. Results of stud¬ies of the dental status of children with autism spectrum disorders in foreign countries are presented in a brief review. Features and algorithm of dental care for children with autism spectrum disorders worked out by the staff of Yevdokimov Moscow State University of Medicine and Dentistry are described. Medical institutions providing dental care to children with autism spectrum disorders in Moscow are listed.
