Abstract
|
|
|
Tardive dyskinesia (TD) is continuous, repetitive movement disorder of tongue, lip or jaw, induced by medication. It causes pain and dysfunction of oral structures but also interferes with dental treatment and overall social life of patients. As a dentist, it is imperative to recognize and manage TD, although currently, there is no definitive treatment for TD. This article reports a patient with TD of tongue, successfully managed with an oral appliance mimicking sensory tricks. Considering the limited treatment options for TD, an oral appliance, a simple and conservative approach, can be a meaningful treatment for some patients with orofacial dyskinesia.
