Providing dental care for patients with Huntington's disease.

UNLABELLED: This paper describes the genetic condition Huntington's disease and its clinical relevance to dentists. The treatment of two patients with the condition is described: one under general anaesthesia, the other with intravenous sedation.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Dentists may have patients who develop Huntington's disease in later life, so this paper will help them consider the longer term effects of this disease and help in planning dental care.
