This document discusses developmental disabilities in children, focusing on Down syndrome and cerebral palsy. It provides details on the causes, symptoms, and oral manifestations of each condition. For Down syndrome, it describes physical characteristics like a flat facial profile and health issues such as congenital heart defects. Common oral findings include hypodontia, delayed tooth eruption, and early periodontal disease. For cerebral palsy, it defines the condition and classifies types based on affected areas of the brain and resulting motor dysfunctions. Key dental problems for both conditions include higher rates of caries and periodontal disease due to difficulties maintaining oral hygiene. The document concludes that preventive dental care and modified treatment approaches are important for managing the oral health

Describe role of plaque in development of caries
Define Dental Caries
Describe the aetiology and the role different factors play in ini4a4on and progression of the disease
Describe the role played by different microorganisms
Dental caries is an infectious microbial disease of the tooth that results in localized destruction and dissolution of calcified tissues.
Dental caries is one of the most prevalent chronic diseases of people worldwide; individuals are susceptible to this disease throughout their lifetime.
Dental caries is the most common microbial disease affecting the tooth. Even through extensive studies over the years, the pathogenesis remains questionable. Hence a fundamental understanding of caries and its theories is essential as data from the past serves as the most vital evidence in the unavoidable quest to figure out the pathogenesis.

July is National Cleft and Craniofacial Awareness Month. A time to raise awareness about and prevention for a congenital condition known as cleft lip and palate and other condition of head and face as well.
Craniofacial anomalies are a diverse group of deformities in the growth of the head and facial region. These abnormalities are present at birth. These conditions affect many children in Pakistan every year. Talking about facial cleft, approx. one in every 500 babies, is born with a cleft in our country
There are MANY children who gets timely treatment and lead normal lives but on the other hand millions of children and adults suffer with unrepaired clefts. Many are abandoned shortly after birth or kept hidden away from society. Most find it difficult to attend school, communicate easily, find jobs or get married. This is usually common in low SE areas. We CAN reduce the numbers by proper awareness programs in areas needed because no child deserves to be left without the treatment
Cleft lip and cleft palate are the most common type of birth defects
They result when structures that form upper lip and palate fail to join together during 4-10th week of development. Clefts are classified as unilateral, bilateral, oblique, non-syndromic, syndromic
It can range from a small notch to a wide gap that reaches the nose and palate
WHAT CAUSES CLEFT LIP AND PALATE?
The exact reason why this happens to some babies is often unclear. It's very unlikely to have been caused by anything you did or did not do during pregnancy.
But it can be associated with genetics, low folic acid level during pregnancy, diabetes, use of alcohol during pregnancy, smoking during pregnancy, and consanguineous marriages as well (that comes under genetics). Use of certain medicines like phenytoin, sodium valproate, benzodiazepines and corticosteroids during pregnancy may also add to the chances
WHEN IS IT DIAGNOSED?
A cleft lip is usually diagnosed during the scan done when you're between 18 and 21 weeks pregnant. Cleft palate is usually difficult to detect on US scan
If a cleft lip or palate does not show up on the scan, it's usually diagnosed immediately after birth or during the newborn physical examination done within 72 hours of birth.
When diagnosed you’re referred to a specialist who will explain the condition and discuss about the treatment plan and other questions u have
TREATMENT
Treatment of CLP child needs several treatment and assessments. It requires a cleft care team that can provide multidisciplinary care. Each treatment has a certain time and should be done at a proper time.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

3. DOWN’S SYNDROME
This is one of the most recognizable malformation syndromes. It may occur due to
trisomy of chromosome 21(95%), translocation(3%) or due to mosaicism(2%).
INCIDENCE/PREVALENCE
It is found to occur 1 in every 600 live birth. With the advancement in the diagnostic
techniques, proportion of cases diagnostic techniques , proportion of cases diagnosed
prenatally increased from 3% to 60% in younger women. In a study done in Australia the
birth prevalence of down syndrome patients has declined from 1986 to 2004
PREDISPOSING FACTORS AND CAUSES
Advanced maternal age, uterine and placental abnormalities and chromosomal
aberrations
4. GENERAL MANIFESTATIONS:
• SKULL: Brachycephalic (round) skull resulting in a flattened face and occiput.
• Presence at birth of third fontanelle just anterior to the posterior fontanelle.
• Flat nasal bridges with a small maxilla.
5. • EYES: oblique palpebral fissures with prominent epicanthic folds.
• Brushfield’s spots appear on the iris in a ring concentric with the pupil.
• Scanty eyelashes.
• Cataracts, squint and nystagmus are common.
6. • EARS: Dysplastic ears with abnormal pinna.
• NECK: Short and broad with excess skin posteriorly.
7. • MUSCLES AND JOINTS: Hypotonicity and Hyperextensibility.
• IQ: often severally retarded with an IQ of 25-50.
12. • Multiple immunological defects affecting the skin, GIT and respiratory tracts.
• Acute lymphoblastic leukemia is 20 times more common in these children.
• Hypothyroidism and Alzeimer’s disease
14. • Tongue: protrusive, fissured tongue.
• Circumvallate papillae may be enlarged, but filiform papillae may be absent.
• Macroglossia.
15. • LIPS: thick, dry, fissured.
• OCCLUSION: anterior open bite and crossbite, class III tendency.
• Small maxilla.
16. • PALATE: often appears high with horizontal palatal shelves.
• Bifid uvula, cleft lip and palate.
17. • ERRUPTION OF TEETH: Retarded.
• Early shedding of deciduous teeth.
• TEETH: Hypodontia, especially third molars and maxillary lateral incisors.
• Microdontia.
• Hypocalcification and hypoplastic defects.
• Low incidence of caries.
18. • PERIODONTIUM: Severe, early onset periodontal disease due to local factors like
poor oral hygiene, tooth morphology and malocclusions and systemic factors like
decreased humoral response, reduced chemotaxis, impaired phagocytosis, poor
circulation, etc.
19. DENTAL TREATMENT
• These children are mentally retarded and require
appropriate treatment.
• Incidence of cardiac disease associated with down’s
syndrome is 40% and will require adequate prophylaxis.
• Increased incidence of leukemia and acute and chronic
infections of the upper respiratory tract can also alter
treatment.
• Children are generally affectionate and cooperative and
present no special problems during management.
• Nitrous oxide analgesia or TSD in mildly apprehensive
patients can be used, general anesthesia in severe
resistance to dental treatment.
• Preventive procedure along with chlorohexidine
mouthwash may be beneficial.
• Pulp treatment in deciduous teeth is contraindicated in
patients with cardiac problems because of the risk of
bacteremia, whereas in permanent teeth it can be
considered if an adequate apical seal can be obtained.
20. CEREBRAL PALSY
• This is one of the most severely handicapping
conditions affecting childhood. Cerebral palsy is
defined as a non-progressive lesion which occurs
in the developing brain before, during or after
birth, leaving the child with a variety of
neurological problem. 50% of these children die in
infancy or require institutional care. The motor
deficit is fully evident only as the child develops.
• The condition manifests itself as a number of
neuromuscular dysfunctions and involves muscle
weakness, stiffness, paralysis , poor balance,
irregular gait and uncoordinated or involuntary
movement. There is a loss of voluntary muscle
control. One newborn in approximately 200 live
births is affected.
21. ETIOLOGY
• Any factor that causes decreased oxygenation to the developing brain can lead to
damage of the brain. Complications of labor or delivery, infections of the brain like
meningitis, encephalitis, toxemia of pregnancy , congenital defects of the brain,
kernicterus , heavy metal and drug positioning, any trauma to the head, premature
birth with CNS abnormality are the common causes.
22. CLASSIFICATION
• I. Based on anatomical involvement
Monoplegia-involvement of one limb only
Hemiplegia-involvement of one side of the body
Paraplegia-involvement of both legs only
Quadriplegia-involvement of all the four limbs
• II. Based on neuromuscular involvement
spasticity
athetosis
ataxia
mixed
23.
24. SPASTIC CEREBRAL PALSY
• Approximately seen in 70% of the cases
• Increased motor tune resulting in stiffness and difficulty
in moving limbs
• Increased deep tendon and stretch reflexes
• Involvement of cerebral cortex
• The foot and leg flexed and rotated resulting in a
limping gait with circumduction of the affected leg
• Lack of control of neck muscles, trunk muscles and
intraoral muscles
• Impaired chewing and swallowing with speech
problems
• The involved muscle show hyperirritability, exaggerated
contractions when stimulated; tense muscles
• Excessive drooling, persistent tongue thrust and speech
impairments
25.
26.
27. ATHETOSIS
• Approximately in 15% of cases
• Involvement of basal ganglia
• Uncontrolled voluntary muscle contraction
• Generalized delay in motor development and the child may
show drooling, dysphagia, speech difficulties and grimacing
• Hypertonicity of the neck musculature with excessive
movement of head leading to held back head with mouth
open and tongue protruded
• Peri-oral muscles hypotonic with mouth breathing and
bruxism
• Most often not associated with convulsion or mental
retardation
• Characterized by slow twisting or writhing involuntary
movement or quick jerky movement and constant
uncontrolled motion of involved muscle
• Frequent uncontrolled jaw movement are seen that causes
abrupt closing of the jaw or severe bruxism
28. ATAXIA
• Approximately in 5% of cases
• Involved muscles unable to contract completely
• Involvement of cerebellum
• Lack of balance leading to staggering gait
• Visual organs may be involved
29. RIGIDITY
• Resistance to passive movements
• Basal ganglia involved
• Voluntary movement are slow and stiff
TREMORS
• Shaking of parts of the body
• Involvement of basal ganglia
30. ATONIA
• Characterized by soft, flabby muscles
MIXED
• Approximately 10% of cases
• Combination of characteristics of more than one type of cerebral palsy
31. DENTAL PROBLEMS
• DENTAL CARIES : Most children may have a higher caries rate than normal children.
This may be due to their inability to maintain good oral hygiene or due to the
tendency to overindulge them with soft and cariogenic food and also due to the
increased prevalence of enamel hypoplastic defects on their teeth.
32. • PERIODONTAL DISEASES: Occur with a great frequency, as the patient is unable to
brush or floss adequately. Due to difficulty in chewing and swallowing, children tend
eat soft food that are high in carbohydrates. They may also be on phenytoin to
seizure activity which is a cause of some degree of gingival hyperplasia.
33. • MALOCCLUSION: Occur twice as often than in the average population. commonly
noticed are protrusion of the maxillary anterior teeth, excessive overjet and overbite,
open bites and unilateral crossbites, the cause being the disharmonious relationship
between intraoral and perioral musculature. In spastics, class II div 2 malocclusion is
observed, along with constricted maxillary and mandibular arches. In the athetoid
group class II div I malocclusion is seen along with a high and narrow palatal vault.
34. • BRUXISM: Commonly seen in athetoid cerebral palsy resulting in severe attrition, loss
of vertical dimension and temporomandibular joint disorders.
35. • TRAUMA: Due to the nature of the disorder, these children are susceptible to trauma,
especially of the maxillary anterior teeth
• Children may have excessive drooling and difficulty in swallowing.
• Spastic cerebral palsy patients present with spastic tongue thrust, constricted
mandibular and maxillary arches, class II div 2 malocclusion (75%) usually with a
unilateral crossbite.
• Athetoid cerebral palsy patients present with mouth breathing, tongue protruding
between the teeth and lips , bruxism, high and narrow palate and anterior open bite.
36. TREATMENT
• Through medical and dental history should be taken,
along with consultation with the child’s physician.
• Maintain a calm, friendly and professional
atmosphere; be empathetic about the child’s
problems.
• Many patients can and prefer to be treated in the
wheelchair, which may be tipped back into the
dentist’s lap.
• The patient’s head should be stabilized throughout
the procedure and the back should be elevated to
reduce swallowing problems.
• Use physical restrains judiciously for control of flailing
extremities.
• A variety of mouth props and finger splints can be
used for control of involuntary jaw movements.
37. • Avoid abrupt movements, lights and noises to
minimize startle reflex reactions and introduce
intraoral stimuli slowly to avoid gag reflex.
• Local anesthetic can be used with care and
stabilization against any sudden movement by the
child.
• Rubber dam can be used to protect the working
area from hyperactive tongue movement, although
floss should be attached to small objects such as
cotton rolls that can become dislodged.
• Gauze shields should be used during extraction to
avoid tooth aspiration.
• Premedication can be used to reduce hypertonicity,
involuntary movement and anxiety.
• General anesthesia can be used as a last resort if the
case is not manageable chairside.
• Do permanent restorations and preventive
38. CONCLUSION
• There is now unanimous agreement that children with special needs have poor oral
hygiene, together with a higher prevalence of periodontal disease and dental caries,
more than normal individual.
• Along with chemical plaque control measures, mechanical plaque control like the use
of powered toothbrushes can greatly help these individuals to have better oral
hygiene.
• HOME dental care should be reviewed periodically and the preventive regimen should
be discussed and modified according to the age of the child.
