- W2328381969 abstract "ABSTRACT Background Intellectual disability is characterized by significant limitations in both intellectual functioning and in adaptive behavior, which covers many everyday social and practical skills. This disability originates before the age of 18 years. Intellectual disability is also known as mental retardation (MR). The knowledge and awareness among parents, guardians or care providers of individuals with intellectual disabilities is extremely important since they play an important role in the formation and maintenance of oral health in their children. Objectives This study was carried out to gauge the awareness of care providers of intellectually disabled children from two different institutions in Mumbai and Navi Mumbai, India concerning their oral hygiene. Materials and methods A simple prestructured questionnaire was distributed among the care providers at two recognized institutions for children with intellectual disabilities in order to determine their knowledge and awareness as regards to the oral hygiene practices and significance of good oral health. The questionnaire was distributed among 120 parents, guardians or care providers of intellectually disabled children, out of which 103 care providers completed the questionnaire. Results The knowledge and awareness of parents was reasonable, but their oral health attitudes were lacking satisfaction. In spite of this, it was seen that the care providers in this study acknowledged the importance of good oral health and its implications on the general well-being of their children. The study revealed that 83% of care providers were unaware about the importance of fluoride in prevention of dental caries, although 95.10% were interested in educating themselves about the importance of oral health. Conclusion The parents/guardians of intellectually disabled children need to be counseled and made conscious about the consequences of negligence toward the oral health of their intellectually disabled children, and the significance of regular dental check-ups. They must be made aware of the various options available in order to prevent the occurrence of oral ailments in their children. How to cite this article Shanbhag PP, Ram SM, Gupta B.
