Study Summary
The goal of this project is to examine the efficacy of a sensory adapted dental environment (SADE) for children who have difficulty tolerating oral care in the dental clinic. The investigators hypothesize that adapting the sensory environment in the dental office by modifying the sounds, sights,and tactile experiences will result in decreased anxiety, increased cooperation, and fewer behavior problems for children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). This has the potential to contribute to increased child comfort as well as safer, more efficient, and less costly treatment for a large population, as potentially more than one-fourth of all children may benefit from a sensory adapted dental environment.
Primary Outcome
Electrodermal activity (EDA) is a non-invasive measure of the ability of the skin to conduct an electrical current, which increases when the sympathetic "fight or flight" nervous system is activated during times of stress.
