Dental treatment for the disabled requires special consideration. Due to poor cooperation of the patient during dental procedures, behavioral management or general anesthesia is often necessary. We also need to consider the patient’s oral habits and ability to maintain oral hygiene. Since dental treatment may be difficult for the disabled, prevent is more important than treatment itself. In addition, secondary dental caries and periodontal disease after treatment are likely to occur when proper oral care is not sustained. Because the patient is difficult to maintain optimal oral hygiene by themselves, it is essential to educate the guardian about the importance of oral hygiene, as well as encourage them to participate in the patient’s daily oral care. Finally, it is necessary to regularly check the patient’s oral hygiene status and perform professional plaque control through frequent dental visit.
