Abstract

Intellectual disability is an imperfect disorder in which mental development is permanently retarded and development of intellectual ability is inadequate. Having intellectual disabilities makes it difficult to handle their own work and adapt to social life. For this reason, it is difficult to hygienically manage the patient's oral condition, multiple caries are easily observed, and the periodontal disease incidence rate is high. The patient in this case is a 33-year-old female with a mental retardation first grade who had a problem with meals. In first visit, Patients had decreased occlusal vertical dimension and posterior bite collapse due to periodontitis and multiple caries. This case reports a satisfactory functional and esthetic results by reconstructing occlusion using partial removable dental prosthesis.

지적장애는 정신 발육이 항구적으로 지체 되어 지적 능력의 발달이 불충분하고 불완전한 장애이며, 지적장애를 가지면 자신의 일을 처리하는 것과 사회생활에의 적응이 상당히 곤란하다. 그렇기 때문에 환자 스스로 구강상태를 위생적으로 관리하는 것이 쉽지 않아 다발적 우식이 쉽게 관찰되며 치주질환 이환율이 높다. 본 증례의 환자는 지적장애 1급을 판정받은 33세 여환으로 치아 및 치주 건강이 좋지 않아 식사에 어려움이 있다는 주소로 내원하였다. 초진 구내 검사 시 환자는 치주염과 다발성 우식으로 수직고경이 감소되고 구치부 교합이 붕괴되어 있었다. 이를 가철성 국소의치 이용하여 교합을 재구성함으로써 심미적, 기능적으로 만족할 만한 결과를 얻었기에 보고하는 바이다.
