Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Autism spectrum disorder is a neurodevelopmental condition which has posed a challenge to carers, pediatricians and dentists through the years. Over the last four decades, the disorder has been better understood and management techniques have evolved. In the field of dentistry, the autistic child presents difficulty in management, even for the simplest dental procedures. A comprehensive understanding of other psychoeducational and behavioral approaches to manage autism is very important. This article aims to introduce various important key techniques such as Applied Behavior Analysis, TEACCH, Sensory Adapted Dental Environment, Picture Exchange Communication System, and Animal Assisted Therapy and analyze their application in dentistry.
METHODS: A search of literature was carried out in Clinicaltrials.gov, Medline and Scopus with the search terms "Applied Behavior Analysis," "TEACCH," "Sensory Adapted Dental Environment," "Picture Exchange Communication System," and "Animal Assisted Therapy" along with "autism OR autistic," "dental OR dentistry OR oral health." After the screening for inclusion and exclusion criteria, 10 eligible articles were included, in English, published within the last 10 years.
RESULTS: Limited research was available regarding these lesser-known behavioral approaches in dentistry. The few that were available showed encouraging results. The different techniques proved useful in increasing acceptance of dental treatment and reducing behavioral disturbances. The patients experienced reduced dental anxiety, lesser discomfort, improved communication, and knowledge.
CONCLUSION: Pediatric and special care dentists are likely to benefit by incorporating the recommended comprehensive behavior management techniques in their practice. There is evidence that these techniques will reduce behavioral disturbances in autistic children thereby making primary dental care possible without the need for sedation or general anesthesia.
