Abstract

To determine the severity of malocclusion in children with special needs based on the period of mixed teeth and the period of permanent teeth in SLB Negeri 1 Makassar, a study was conducted using a cross-sectional study method with a descriptive observation design. Samples of children with special needs were taken by purposive sampling at SLB Negeri 1 Makassar with clinical examination using the Occlusion Feature Index. The results showed the severity of malocclusion in the period of mixed teeth as much as 59.5%, in the period of permanent teeth as much as 40.8%. In children with special needs, it was found that the category in dire need of orthodontic treatment was in the category of autistic disorders (85.7%) followed by the classifica-tion of disorders of tunagrahita (66.7%). While in the classification of blind disorders 46.7% did not need orthodontic treatment. It is concluded that malocclusion is more prevalent in children with special needs with the autistic disorder category.
