Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by persistent deficits in social communication and the presence of restricted interests and repetitive behaviours. Comorbidities following ASD, such as seizure, intellectual disability, and sensory impairment worsen patients’ ability to care for themselves. We present the case of a 22-year-old man with autism, intellectual disability and visual impairment who had recurrent pain in his upper and lower left posterior teeth that had cavities. On the first visit, the patient was observed and had panoramic x-ray. Clinical examination could not be done properly due to lack of patient cooperation. Restoration, pulp capping, tooth extraction, and odontectomy were planned under general anaesthesia.

The most common symptoms of Williams-Beuren syndrome (WBS) are heart defects and unusual facial features. The objective of this case report was to highlight the preparation of comprehensive dental care for this syndrome. A seven-year-old boy came with multiple dental caries as a chief complaint. Parents reported a history of corrected tetralogy of Fallot (ToF) three years ago. The routine medical check-up was carried out annually. Based on the typical signs and symptoms, a diagnosis of William-Beuren Syndrome was made. Comprehensive dental care under general anesthesia on a patient with a history of heart defect and multiple dental caries was the best choice and exhibits a high success rate. Extraction treatment was carried out to avoid the risk of endocarditis infection, restoration to prevent the progressivity of caries, and space maintainers to restore function and aesthetics.
