So they require physical management techniques, pharmacologic agents, and general anesthesia more than the normal at the dental clinic. The behavior therapy is a kind of the psychotherapy and is applied to the patient with behavioral problems. Seoul Dental Hospital for Disabled(SDHD) set up the Dental Behavior Clinic for the patients with developmental disorder and treated 32 patients with ID or ASD, blind. 18 patients were treated according to the ordinary plans, 14 patients stopped the treatment by different reasons. The various results of the treatment were produced by the kind or severity of the diseases, age and cooperation of the patients and the caregivers. Especially, the behavior therapist helped to figure out the characteristics of the patients and to make individualized treatment plans. In the future, it will be necessary to treat more patients and to make the dental behavior therapy objectify. And through the dental behavior therapy, it will be expected that the patients will become more cooperative to the dental clinic and can receive regular check-up peacefully, reducing the frequency of the general anesthesia.
