초록

In patients with cerebral palsy, dental treatments, which require absolute patient's corporation, have many difficulties because of muscle spacity, involuntary muscle movements and spasm. Especially in endodontic treatments which very meticulous instrumentation is needed, these muscle discordances may lead to unexpected accidents such as tissue damage while filing, over-instrumentation and swallowing instruments. Also, taking radiographs for measuring canal length is often hindered by walking and movement disorders. This paper is to present a clinical case of one-visit root canal treatment using electrical apex locator under general anesthesia in a cerebral palsy patient.
