Abstract

ECC is a rising healthcare concern in developing countries. It leads to immediate or late complications, which may affect the overall well-being and development of the child. Hence treating it as well as modifying its risk factors at the earliest is required. Treating s-ECC may require extensive procedures and long appointments to which many children especially under the age of five do not comply. In such situations when all the other means of management has failed, treatment can be done under general anaesthesia which reduces the trauma caused by multiple dental visits. A treatment is successful only if regular recall and checkup is done. This report presents the case a 4 yrs old female patient with Frankel’s definitely negative behaviour diagnosed with ECC and describes in detail its restorative and rehabilitative management carried out under General Anaesthesia.

Keywords: General anaesthesia Full mouth rehabilitation, Early childhood caries.
