Digital Accessibility and Assistive Technology for Autism Spectrum Disorder in Dental Setting: Interactive Communication, Treatment, Referral, and Follow-Up

This paper aims to highlight the connection between oral health and ASD and aims to make dental care more accessible for autistic people. It was proven by multiple studies that autistic individuals are more prone to dental problems, yet they are less likely to seek dental care, and when they do, there are often gaps that prevent them from getting proper care. It is important to address the issues ASD individuals face in order to provide better oral care and improve oral health and awareness in the individuals, parents, and caretakers.
