Moyamoya disease (MMD) is a chronic cerebrovascular disorder that narrows major blood vessels in the brain, reduces blood flow, and increases the risk of stroke. The purposes of this study were to: (1) present the case of a four-year-old patient diagnosed with MMD; (2) discuss important aspects of her multidisciplinary care plan involving dental, behavioral, and medical management; and (3) suggest approaches and recommendations for health care providers. A four-year-old Middle Eastern female diagnosed with MMD, neurogenic bladder, chronic constipation, hyperactivity, and delayed milestones presented to the dental clinic with her parents seeking dental care. The child was referred by a pediatric neurologist for dental care. In the present case, there were no specific oral manifestations. However, oral physicians should be aware of possible behavioral management modalities when providing dental care to pediatric patients, including those diagnosed with MMD.
