Many children with mild/moderate autistic spectrum disorder (ASD) receive care in general dental practice. We report a seven year old boy with ASD presenting with dental pain who auto-extracted one of his deciduous canines. Children with ASD may have hyposensitivity to pain and can exhibit unusual forms of self-injurious behaviour.
许多患有轻度/中度自闭症谱系障碍(ASD)的儿童在普通牙科诊所接受治疗。我们报告了一名患有ASD的七岁男孩,他因牙痛自行拔除了一颗乳牙。患有ASD的儿童可能对疼痛不敏感,并可能表现出异常形式的自伤行为。
