NIH T32 Postdoctoral Fellow Leah Stein MA ’06, PhD ’13 was quoted in a New York Times article on the potential for sensory adaptations to reduce distress and pain of children with autism when visiting the dentist.
Stein is a member of the Sensory Adapted Dental Environments to Enhance Oral Care for Children with Autism research team led by Principal Investigator Sharon Cermak. The research project, funded by the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research, aims to collect information on the effectiveness of a specially adapted dental environment for children, including children with autism spectrum disorders and typically developing children, who have difficulty tolerating oral care in the dental clinic.
