Children with an intellectual disability often demonstrate lack of cooperation during dental treatment and require behavioral management. A child with mild intellectual disability can be managed adequately using restraints and medication. However, in cases of profound intellectual disability, dental treatment under general anesthesia is usually required. In cases where the patient is an intellectually disabled child who has intellectually disabled parents, it is difficult to evaluate the patient's preoperative condition and to obtain consent for treatment under general anesthesia. Furthermore, they are unable to respond to emergencies after treatment. Therefore, dental treatment should be performed under general anesthesia with hospitalization for children with an intellectual disability. This case presents the dental treatment of an intellectually disabled child, who has intellectually disabled parents, and who required general anesthesia and hospitalization.

어린이에게 있어서 치과 불안의 문제는 오랫동안 환자 행동조절의 문제로서 여겨져 왔으며 이러한 문제로 인해 치료 시의 비협조도, 치료 약속 취소 및 회피 등이 발생할 수 있다. 따라서 치과의사 및 치과 팀에게 가능한 한 빨리 어린이의 치과 불안을 인지하여 적절히 대처할 것이 요구되어진다. 한편, 부모의 치과 불안이 그들의 아이의 치과 불안과 치료 협조도에 영향을 줄 수 있음이 이전의 여러 연구들로부터 언급되어지고 있다. 또한 치과 방문 결정의 주체가 어린이라기보다는 부모임을 고려할 때, 부모와 어린이 사이의 치과 불안도의 관계 규명이 중요하다 하겠다. 본 연구는 전북대학교 병원 소아치과에 내원한 $3{\sim}10$세(평균 연령 5.27세, 표준 편차 2.172세)의 어린이 78명(남아 45명, 여아 33명)과 그들의 부모 78명을 대상으로 하였으며, 치과 치료 전의 어린이의 치과 불안도 평가를 위해 Venham Picture Scale을, 부모의 치과 불안도 평가를 위해 Corah's dental anxiety scale을 사용하여 두 값을 비교하였다. 또한 어린이의 치료 시 협조도, 기질, 성별, 나이, 부모의 교육 정도를 평가하여 치과 불안도와 비교하였다. 이에 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 어린이의 치과 불안도와 부모의 치과 불안도 사이의 상관 분석 및 회귀분석에서 상호 관계성 이 존재하였다(P<0.02). 2. 어린이의 치과 불안도와 치료 협조도 사이의 상관 분석 및 교차 분석에서 음의 상호 관계를 나타내었다(P<0.001). 3. 어린이의 치과불안도와 기질에 관한 Student's t-test에서 낮은 불안도와 높은 불안도 그룹의 네 가지 기질 평군 점수 비교 시, 낮은 불안도 그룹에서 모두 약간 낮은 평균 점수를 보였으나 통계학적 유의차는 없었다(P>0.1). 4. 어린이의 치과 불안도와 어린이의 성별, 나이에 관한 Student's t-test에서, 여아에서 높은 불안도, $3{\sim}6$세의 어린 그룹에서 높은 불안을 보였다(P<0.001). 5. 부모의 치과 불안도와 부모의 학력에 관한, Student's t-test에서, 대학교육을 받지 않은 저학력 부모 그룹에서 더 높은 불안도를 보였으나 통계학적 유의차는 없었다(P>0.1).

Wolff-Hirschorn syndrome is a condition that is caused by a deletion of genetic material near the end of the short (p) arm of chromosome 4. The major features of this disorder include a characteristic facial appearance, delayed growth and development, intellectual disability, and seizures. A 9-year-old girl was brought to the clinic with a chief complaint of dental examination. The child was diagnosed as WHS at Samsung medical center. The child was under Sodium valproate, Atrovastatin medication for epilepsy, hyperlipidemia and had a history of heart surgery. So prophylactic antibiotics were recommended. The child was mentally retarded and had seizure so it was difficult to manage her behavior effectively. Thus dental treatment was carried out under general anesthesia. For prompt sedation induction we used 8% sevoflurane shortly. This report presents the case of a 9-year-old girl with WHS, who has received treatment for extensive caries under general anesthesia.

본 연구는 전신마취 또는 정주진정 하 치과치료가 주 양육자가 인식하는 환아의 구강 건강과 관련된 삶의 질과 환아 가족의 일상생활에 미치는 영향을 확인하기 위해 시행되었다. 10세 이하의 건강한 환아와 그 환아의 주 양육자를 대상으로 연구가 진행되었다. 환아가 전신마취 또는 정주진정 하 치과치료를 위해 내원한 당일, 치료 시작 전에 환아의 주 양육자가 설문지를 작성하고, 치료 후 6개월 이내에 동일한 주 양육자가 동일한 설문지를 다시 작성하였다. 총 43명의 환아가 연구 대상에 포함되었으며, Child Oral Health Impact Profile(COHIP)과 Family Impact Scale(FIS)의 대한민국 버전이 설문에 사용되었다. COHIP과 FIS 점수 모두 술 전에 비하여 술 후에 개선되었다. 성별은 COHIP 및 FIS 점수의 개선에 별다른 영향을 주지 않았으며, 연령은 COHIP 점수의 개선에 영향을 주지 않았다. 그러나 어린 환아의 경우 술 전 FIS 점수가 더 양호한 것으로 나타났다. 치수치료를 한 경우에는 COHIP 점수가 더 크게 개선되었으며, 구치부 기성금속관 수복을 한 경우에는 FIS 점수의 개선 정도가 적었다. 전치부 심미수복 여부와 전치부 조기 발거 여부는 COHIP 및 FIS 점수의 개선 정도에 영향을 주지 않았다. 결론적으로, 전신마취 또는 정주진정 하 치과치료는 주 양육자가 인식하는 환아의 구강 건강과 관련된 삶의 질을 개선시킨다.

Background: The first dental experience is vital in molding a child's attitude towards dentistry and dental outcomes. The cooperation of a child during dental treatment is essential to render successful and high-quality treatment. Dental anxiety is common in children undergoing dental treatment. The success of pediatric dental treatments and patient comfort depends on controlling the levels of patient anxiety in clinical settings. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of the recorded maternal voice and virtual cognitive tool (Roogies application) in the management of pediatric dental patients. Methods: The study was carried out with children aged of 4-7 years [n = 80, (40 male and 40 female)], without any past dental history, and were randomly allocated into two groups. After informed consent was obtained, the entire procedure was explained to the parents. Anxiety was assessed pre-, during, and post-treatment by measuring pulse rate, and recording Venham Picture Test (VPT) scores. Group A [n = 40; 20 boys and 20 girls)] was provided with a headphone that played a recorded maternal voice. Group B [n = 40; 20 boys and 20 girls)] was administered the virtual cognitive tool. After conditioning the children, oral prophylaxis was performed for both groups. A comparative evaluation was conducted for each treatment session. Results: The intra-group comparison of VPT scores and heart rate for patients assigned to the recorded maternal voice showed a statistically significant difference in dental anxiety (P-value ≤0.001). Conclusion: This study demonstrated that a reduction in dental anxiety with the help of recorded maternal voice forms an important component of non-pharmacological behavior management. Alternatively, the use of a virtual cognitive tool as an anxiety-reducing technique can also be advocated.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the influence of child's general property, mother's social and economic property, mother's knowledge and behavior in oral hygiene upon the appearance and treatment of child's primary tooth decay. For the purpose, oral examination was applied to one hundred three(103) small children who were at the age between four(4) and seven(7) and went to two(2) places of day care centers located in Seoul, and questionnaire was done to their mothers. The results of the study are as follows. 1. The number of children's dt is 1.55, the number of their ft is 1.42, dft index for primary tooth is 2,98, ft rate is 45.61%, and the higher child's age is, the higher their value is. 2. Mother's age, educational background, and occupation does not show significant difference with dft index for primary tooth. The higher mother's monthly average income is, the higher child's ft rate is. 3. dft index for primary tooth does not show significant difference according 10 mother's knowledge in oral hygiene. And, the child of mother using dental floss does show higher it rate in comparison with the one of mother who does not use dental floss, 4. Experience using dental clinic to treatment tooth decay does show significant difference with dft index for primary tooth. And experience using dental clinic for the purpose of oral examination and preventive treatment does show significant difference with ft rate. 5. From the result of multiple regression with dependent variable of dft index for primary tooth, there is no variable having significant influence. From the result of multiple regression with dependent variable of ft rate, explanatory variable is 43%, child's age, mother's occupation, mother's monthly average income, and experience using dental clinic to prevent tooth decay are significant explanatory elements. Through the above results, we can know that mother should practice positive behavior in oral hygiene for child to improve oral health. Under the reason, oral health education should be applied toward mothers as soon as possible, and governmental support should be followed so that mothers can participate in the education.
