Abstract
Dental care is a consequential health issue in paediatric patients with ASD. This occurs due to the self-injurious behaviors (SIBs). Due to increased hypersensitivity, it is difficult in brushing. It is difficult for the ASD children to communicate their dental problems due to issues in communication. Parents should show a positive attitude. They should determine the cognitive abilities of the child to communicate. Regular dental checkups are needed. Dental clinics, staff, timings should be the same as child’s sensory hypersensitivity should be considered.
