Brief Summary
Adolescent Special need individuals are most need of easy forms of antibacterial agents, so in this study, using chemotherapeutic agents like the newly introduced varnish containing chlorhexidine seems to be a quite promising tool for local delivery to patients with special needs . Chlorhexidine is a wide spectrum very effective bactericidal used for years against the oral flora while fluorides are well known with their antibacterial ability. This may be an excellent way to reduce the risk assessment in adolescent special needs patients.
