Abstract:
Genetic disorders such as Trisomy 21, Down Syndrome, can have numerous signs and symptoms leading to treatment complications of varying degrees. Obtaining the details regarding the patient's presentation of such disorders in addition to a thorough medical history before first seeing the patient is imperative. Treating the individual is less intimidating when you evaluate how each element affects the treatment you plan to provide and allows you to be adequately prepared to provide dental care and develop an oral health plan.
