Method Twelve children with ASD (females n = 1 8.3 %; males n = 11 91.7 %) were included in the study. The pre-test was evaluated two phases: pulse rate and oral examination steps in the dental clinic. The pulse rate using a pulse oximeter and the response to oral examination steps using the Frankl Scale were measured. A special room simulating a dental clinic was prepared in the special education center. In the room, systematic desensitization supported by PVM was applied by showing a video of oral examination steps by the children’s own educators. After, post-test was applied as in the pre-test. The pre-test and post-test data were statistically compared. Results The mean age of participants was 9.5 ± 2.3 years. The mean pulse values in the pre-test (98.16 ± 16.06) were statistically higher than the post-test (80.33 ± 11.15) (p = 0.013). A statistically difference was observed between the Frankl Scale values in the pre-test and post-test stage (p < 0.05). Frankl Scale values in the post-test were higher than in the pre-test stage. Conclusion The systematic desensitization supported by PVM has been shown effective in accustoming children with ASD to oral examinations. Lay Summary Dentists, parents, and special educators can use desensitization supported by PVM to facilitate dental procedures of children with ASD.
