“…It is imperative to pay particular attention to the oral health of these vulnerable groups, as internationally, CA-SN have a higher risk of developing dentogenic diseases (e.g., caries), which are often treated belatedly due to the reasons mentioned above, leading to the increased severity of the diseases [ 23 , 24 , 26 , 28 , 29 , 30 ]. Consequently, CA-SN often require more invasive procedures (e.g., general anesthesia) [ 25 ].…”

Background: The current literature lacks scientific research on child and adolescent psychiatrists’ (CAPPS) perspectives on dental and oral health. This study aims to investigate the opinions and approaches of child and adolescent psychiatrists and their patients regarding oral and dental health. Methods: A questionnaire-based cross-sectional study was conducted among members of the Professional Association for Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Psychosomatics and Psychotherapy in Germany. Results: Out of the association members, 10.9% (n = 109) participated, with 5.2% (n = 52; 38f/14m) completing the questionnaire. Dental and oral health topics were discussed with one-fifth of the patients (19.2%), while 11.5% reported that they were “never” a part of their therapy. Patient-related concerns about dental and oral health were primarily brought into the context of child and adolescent psychiatric work. Dental treatment anxieties were prominent. Only 3.8% of the participants regularly assigned diagnoses related to dental status. The CAPPS employ a bio-psycho-social model for the genesis of oral health-related conditions in Children and Adolescents with Special Needs. Conclusions: CAPPS have a foundation in relationship-based work for assessing oral and dental healthcare and providing recommendations for further dental care. Regional networking and science must be further developed.

BackgroundChildren with autism exhibit a higher general and dental anxiety, due to altered sensory sensibilities.AimThis current systematic review aims to evaluate the effectiveness of Sensory adapted dental environment (SADE) over regular dental environment (RDE) on behavioral, physiological stress and overt anxiety in children with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs).Materials and methodsProspero registered (CRD42024508336). PubMed, Cochrane, Scopus databases are searched from years January 1, 1980–January 1, 2024 using pre‐defined search strategy.ResultsA total of 269 titles, were obtained from the included databases after application of filters, exclusion of duplicates and reviews and irrelevant articles led to the final inclusion of 12 articles for full text screening from which, three studies sustained the targeted PICO search.ConclusionSkin conductance level (parameter indicating physiological stress) is lower in SADE environment in children with ASD, other behavior stress related parameters there is no significant difference between SADE and RDE environments.
