Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism > 132 (April 2026) . - 202861 Titre : Access to dental care for autistic children and adolescents: A cross-sectional study Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Andrieli FRANCISCO, Auteur ; Juliana DA SILVA MORO, Auteur ; Bárbara Azevedo MACHADO, Auteur ; Gabriela GOES, Auteur ; Mariane CARDOSO, Auteur ; Carla MASSIGNAN, Auteur ; Michele BOLAN, Auteur ; Carla Miranda SANTANA, Auteur Article en page(s) : 202861 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Spectrum Disorder  Access  Oral Health Résumé : Objective To analyze the perceived difficulty in accessing dental treatment among children and adolescents with Autism Spectrum Disorder(ASD) and the associated factors. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted in Brazil through an open, anonymous online survey administered between September 1 and 16, 2020, to caregivers of autistic children and adolescents aged 3–18 years. Characteristics of ASD (reported severity and sensory sensitivity) and variables related to dental care were investigated, including reason for the dental visit and the need for oral sedation and protective restraint. Descriptive analysis and multivariable logistic regression were performed to estimate odds ratios (ORs) and 95 % confidence intervals (95 % CIs). Results Most caregivers did not report perceived difficulty in accessing dental treatment. However, greater ASD severity (OR = 1.78; 95 % CI: 1.27–2.49), moderate sensory sensitivity (OR = 1.60; 95 % CI: 1.14–2.25), treatment-motivated visits (OR = 2.06; 95 % CI: 1.45–2.91), the need for protective restraint (OR = 1.66; 95 % CI: 1.12–2.47), and oral sedation (OR = 3.02; 95 % CI: 1.82–5.01) were associated with greater perceived difficulty in access. Conclusion Although access to dental care was reported by most caregivers, the main barriers were concentrated in situations involving greater clinical and behavioral complexity, indicating that perceived difficulty in access is related to the interaction between individual ASD-related factors and limitations in the organization and provision of health services.

Inclusive Dentistry? Mapping the Landscape of Autism and Dentistry Research through Bibliometric Analysis / Pedro Vitali KAMMER in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 56-7 (July 2026)

A search strategy was constructed and conducted at the Web of Science database. The following information was extracted from each paper: title, authorship, year of publication, title of the journal, study subject dental care, oral health status, dental behavior support), study design, and number of citations. A total of 2,637 articles were obtained from the WoS-CC search. After selection, 422 papers were included, published from 1996 to 2024, and had 6,728 citations. Observational studies constituted most publications (214 papers). Among the focus of published articles, “oral health status” emerged as the predominant subject followed by “dental behavior support”. More than half of the included papers were published in the last five years, accounting for 70.6% of the total. There has been a notable increase in research publications on autism and dentistry over time, primarily comprising observational studies. The predominant themes revolved around oral health status and dental behavior support.
