ABSTRACT
Hallervorden-Spatz syndrome is a rare neuro-degenerative disorder characterized by high levels of iron deposits in the brain. Patients
exhibit extrapyramidal and cognitive impairment and dystonia, seizures, spasticity, dysarthria, rigidity of limbs and visual disturbances.
We report a case of a patient with this syndrome, who had multiple carious lesions and self-inflicted injuries of the mucosa of the lower
lip and tongue, produced during periods of intense orofacial spasms. Oral rehabilitation was performed under general anesthesia. Dental
treatment was given to promote dental hygiene, pain relief, and elimination of infections.
