The technique of behaviour management in medical treatment, especially in dental treatment, is needed to eliminate uncooperative children behaviour. The main factor influencing children behaviour is fear of painful that usually related to dental treatment. Children patients who will have their post­labioplasty and palatoplasty stitches removed have more sensitive condition, they cry when the dentist gives treatment. Using general anesthesia is a method to manage uncooperative children behaviour. Inhalational anesthesia is often used in general anesthesia and sevoflurane is a drug of choice. Sevoflurane has low solubility in blood, pleasant odor, nonirritating airway, and has a rapid induction of and recovery from anesthesia. Some researches indicate that sevoflurane gives more calm condition and can be used as a sufficiently ideal induction and maintenance of anesthesia in children. Sevoflurane can therefore made as alternative procedure in the removal of post-labioplasty and palatoplasty stitches.

El Síndrome de Asperger es una enfermedad del neurodesarrollo caracterizado por deficiencias en la interacción social y la comunicación,sin retraso en el desarrollo cognitivo y del lenguaje, considerado dentro de los Trastornos Generalizados del Desarrollo y de las Condiciones del Espectro Autista. Debido a las características de este síndrome estos pacientes requieren atención y técnicas conductuales específicas, parapoder realizar el tratamiento dental. El objetivo de este reporte es dar a conocer los cuidados y el manejo de conducta para el tratamiento dental en pacientes con Síndrome de Asperger. Palabras clave: Síndrome de Asperger, desensibilización sistemática, cuidado dental, salud bucal, prevención primaria, comportamiento.  AbstractAsperger syndrome is a disease of the neurodevelopmental characterized by deficiencies in social interaction and communication, without delay in cognitive development and language, and is considered within pervasive developmental disorders and the autism spectrumconditions. Due to the characteristics these patients require care and specific behavioral techniques, to perform dental treatment. The objective of this report is to present the care and behaviour management for dental treatment in patients with Asperger syndrome. Key words: Asperger syndrome, systematic desensitization, dental care, oral health, primary prevention, behaviour.

Abstract Background: Local anesthetic containing adrenaline is commonly used in many operations to maintain hemostasis and prolong the duration of anesthesia. Antipsychotic drugs have an α-adrenergic receptor blocking action, and it is thought that β-adrenergic receptors predominate when adrenaline is administered in combination, thus inducing hypotension. Many general anesthetics have vasodilatory effects, and it is possible that blood pressure may decrease further if adrenaline-containing lidocaine is administered to antipsychotic users during anesthesia. This study aimed to assess the circulation dynamics in regular antipsychotics users administered adrenaline-containing lidocaine under general anesthesia in a dental procedure. Methods: Participants included 30 patients regularly using antipsychotics (butyrophenone, phenothiazine, and/or atypical antipsychotics) who were scheduled for dental treatment to be performed under general anesthesia. At five minutes after tracheal intubation, the systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), heart rate (HR), and percutaneous oxygen saturation (SpO2) were measured as a baseline. SBP, DBP, HR, and SpO2 were measured 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 minutes after the injection of 1.8 mL of 2% lidocaine (32 mg) with 1:80,000 adrenaline (22.5 μg) into the oral cavity. Differences in the SBP, DBP, HR, and SpO2 between baseline and at each time point were analyzed using Dunnett’s test.Results: No significant changes were observed in the SBP, DBP, HR, and SpO2 compared to baseline until ten minutes after the administration of adrenaline-containing lidocaine. No adverse events were observed up to one hour after the administration of adrenaline-containing lidocaine.Conclusions: This study demonstrated that adrenaline used at the usual dose for dental treatment under general anesthesia is unlikely to affect the circulation dynamics of regular antipsychotic users.

Access to dental treatment could be difficult for some patients due to dental phobia or anxiety, cognitive or sensorial disabilities, systemic disorders, or social difficulties. General anesthesia (GA) was often indicated for dental surgery, and there is almost no available data on adapted procedures and materials that can be applied during GA for maintaining functional teeth on the arches and limiting oral dysfunctions. This study evaluates changes in oral health-related quality of life and mastication in a cohort of uncooperative patients treated under GA according to a comprehensive and conservative dental treatment approach. Dental status, oral health-related quality of life, chewed bolus granulometry, kinematic parameters of mastication, and food refusals were evaluated one month preoperatively (T0), and then one month (T1) and six months post-operatively (T2). One hundred and two adult patients (mean age ± SD: 32.2 ± 9.9 years; range: 18–57.7) participated in the preoperative evaluation, 87 were treated under GA of which 36 participated in the evaluation at T1 and 15 were evaluated at T2. Preoperative and postoperative data comparisons demonstrated that oral rehabilitation under GA helped increase chewing activity and oral health-related quality of life. The conditions for providing dental treatment under GA could be arranged to limit dental extractions in uncooperative patients.
