Abstract

Abstract: Objective: To observe and analyze the effects of dental treatment under general anesthesia on oral related quality of life in children with disabilities.Methods: Forty-eight cases of disabled children under general anesthesia were collected, and the Child Oral Health Impact Profile -14 (COHIP-14) and Family Impact Scale-12 (FIS-12) were completed before the general anesthesia, 1 month after the operation, and 6 months after the operation by the caregivers.Data analysis was carried out by the analysis software SAS 9.4.Results: The COHIP-14 mean scores was (35.7±7.3) before operation, (47.8±4.6) after 1 month, and (48.3±3.9) after 6 months (P<0.001).FIS-12 mean scores was (19.3±5.6) before operation, (10.5±2.9) after 1 month, and (9.4±2.4) after 6 months (P<0.001).Conclusion: Dental treatment under general anesthesia can significantly improve oral quality of life in children with disabilities and their families.
