AREIAS, C. et al. Clinical approach of Down syndrome children in the dental office. Av Odontoestomatol [online]. 2014, vol.30, n.6, pp.307-313. ISSN 2340-3152.
Introduction: This study intends to describe the characteristics of Down syndrome children and relate them to oral health in order to facilitate their treatment in the dental office. Material and methods: A PubMed database research was conducted and limited to articles published in English, Spanish, French and Portuguese, between the years of 1997 and 2012. Results and discussion: The characterization of oral health standards in a population with T21 is necessary to establish priorities (both preventive and curative actions) and it's essential to identify and quantify the needs of the target population when a health care plan is made in order to develop a preventive standard protocol.
