Article Synopsis
- - The study assessed the effects of a specific prevention program on clinical hygiene, patient cooperation, and dental habits of 100 children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) over time.
- - Results showed significant improvements in plaque and gingival indices, as well as in tooth brushing frequency after five visits, while snack frequency and overall dental decay did not show significant changes.
- - The program also notably enhanced patient cooperation, suggesting that tailored digital tools can effectively help children with ASD become more comfortable in dental settings.
