Dental treatment under GA provides a safe approach and has significant positive effects on quality of life for children with down syndrome who cannot accept normal treatment. Oral health related quality of life is measured in relation to how the mouth and teeth affect physical, psychological and social well-being and daily activities such as eating, chewing, swallowing, speaking, playing, learning, happiness, embarrassment, and social interactions (Jabarifar et al., 2009).

It also has a positive impact on the family".
