The clinic of dentistry for the geriatric and handicapped was established in Fukuoka Dental College Hospital in April. 1991. This clinic treats handicapped or senile (over 70 y.o.) patients and with a systemic disease who can not be treated at an ordinary dental clinic. We examined the status of the patients and their managements of dental treatment during the four years from the establishment in April, 1991. The number of patients were 987 (males 531,females 456). Most of the patients were under 18 years old. Although the number of new patients decreased with the progress of time, the number of average out-patients increased with the days. The patient groups consisted of the handicapped patients (467,47.3%), senile (over 65 y.o.) patients (154,15.6%), medically compromised patients (146,14.8%) and others (220,22.3%). The most common disease of the handicapped patients were mental retardation, followed by cerebral palsy. The most common disease in senile (over 65 y.o.) patients and medically compromised patients was cardiovascular disease, including heart disease and hypertension. We found that complications occurred most frequently in patients over 65 years old. The major management in dental treatment was behaviour management group with 436 (53.4%) patients, followed by the general management group with 287 (35.2%) patients. Among the dental anesthesiologic management procedures, intravenous sedation was 69 (164 cases), general anesthetic was 149 (171 cases) and monitoring on 205 patients. Most of the patients (82.1%) lived in the suburbs of Fukuoka city and 43.7% of them lived in Sawara ward.
