Social story
Social story is a training method constituting of short stories to convey information in a step-by-step manner, so that ASD children can understand what to expect and how to behave in different situations in daily lives. Social stories have been implemented to introduce dentistry and improve oral hygiene to individuals diagnosed with ASD with promising results. However, the certainty of evidence for its effectiveness in reducing dental fear during dental visit was low as the results were derived from small-scaled non-randomized controlled studies.
