Dr. Akanksha Juneja

Abstract :

Child sexual abuse (CSA) typically includes unwanted and inappropriate sexual solicitation of, or exposure to, a child by an older person; genital touching or fondling; or penetration in terms of oral, anal or vaginal intercourse or attempted intercourse. Anyone who is a survivor of sexual abuse, is likely aware that the trauma of the abuse can last a lifetime. Flashbacks of feelings or events can arise at any given moment for abuse survivors. Dentist’s role emerges as the one attending to all the dimensions of the patient’s presentation and management apart from the diagnosis and treatment of the oral pathobiology.
