Abstract

Background: Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) encompass a range of conditions characterized by difficulties in social interaction and communication. Managing dental treatment for children with autism presents challenges due to their reluctance to interact with dentists, which can be as high as 65%.

Objectives: This prospective non-randomized study, conducted at the Kazakh-Russian Medical University from January 15, 2023, to June 20, 2023, aimed to assess the efficacy of air abrasion caries treatment (AAbCT) compared to the standard method.

Intervention: The intervention involved applying air abrasion (AAb) treatment without anesthesia using aluminum oxide powder in the AAbCT group, while the control group received cavity preparation with local anesthesia.

Results: In this study, it was noted that the AAb method of tooth preparation was not different in efficacy from the traditional method for a population of children with autism, and could be used without anesthesia. A greater willingness to cooperate was noted (p = .0372).

Conclusion: The AAb is an effective and safe treatment for children with ASD. Further studies needed to investigate its efficacy and safety in combination with behavioral interventions.

使用气磨法治疗 6 岁自闭症患者的龋齿：非随机对照试验。

背景：自闭症谱系障碍（ASD）包括一系列以社交互动和沟通困难为特征的疾病。由于自闭症儿童不愿与牙医交流，为他们的牙科治疗带来了挑战，自闭症儿童不愿与牙医交流的比例可高达65%：这项前瞻性非随机研究于2023年1月15日至2023年6月20日在哈萨克-俄罗斯医科大学进行，旨在评估空气磨蚀龋齿治疗（AAbCT）与标准方法相比的疗效：干预措施：AAbCT组在不麻醉的情况下使用氧化铝粉进行气磨（AAb）治疗，而对照组则在局部麻醉的情况下进行龋洞准备：结果：本研究发现，对于自闭症儿童群体而言，AAb 备牙法与传统备牙法的疗效并无不同，而且可以在不麻醉的情况下使用。自闭症儿童更愿意合作（p = .0372）：AAb对自闭症儿童是一种有效、安全的治疗方法。结论：AAb对自闭症儿童是一种有效、安全的治疗方法，需要进一步研究其与行为干预相结合的有效性和安全性。
