Down Syndrome is a congenital anomaly that is characterized by the generalized hypotonic, neurological changes with intellectual impairment and risk to systemic issues, in addition, tendency to dental issues. Children with disabilities, including conditions that affect behavior and cognition, often present limitations for dental care requiring the use of pharmacological behavior management techniques). It is important to consider the oral health component from early ages. The present case report corresponds to a 5-year-old male patient that attended to the Specialized Pediatric Dentistry Clinic of the San Martin de Porres University. A multidisciplinary treatment was proposed during the treatment planned; highlighting the usage of non-pharmacological behavior management techniques for the patient.
