Music Therapy During Dental Procedures in Adults With Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities
14 września 2026 zaktualizowane przez: Adela Planerova, University of Rochester
Music Therapy to Improve Dental Procedure Tolerance and Reduce Distress in Adults With Intellectual and Developmental Differences
Adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities may experience behavioral distress, sensory sensitivity, and difficulty tolerating dental procedures.
This pilot randomized controlled trial will compare live music therapy delivered by a board certified music therapist with recorded music during non emergency dental procedures performed under local anesthesia.
Approximately 50 participants will be enrolled to obtain 40 evaluable participants randomized in a 1:1 ratio.
The study will evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of live music therapy and its preliminary effects on behavioral cooperation, procedural distress, physiological responses, completion of dental treatment without escalation to sedation, and procedure duration.

Eksperymentalny: Live Music Therapy
Participants assigned to this arm will receive live music therapy delivered by a board certified music therapist during a scheduled non emergency dental procedure performed under local anesthesia.
The intervention may include passive music listening, active music listening, guided breathing synchronized with music, sung procedural cues, live singing with guitar accompaniment, improvisation, tempo entrainment to breathing or heart rate, and participant directed instrument playing or singing.
The intervention will be individualized according to participant preferences, responsiveness, and functional abilities.
Sessions will be audio recorded to support intervention fidelity and characterization.
|
Live music therapy will be delivered by a board certified music therapist before, during, and after the dental procedure as appropriate.
Techniques may include live singing with guitar accompaniment, improvisation, music entrainment to breathing or heart rate, guided breathing synchronized with music, sung procedural cues, and participant engagement through instrument playing, singing, or vocal or instrumental improvisation.
The intervention will be adapted in real time based on the participant's preferences, behavioral responses, physiological cues, and functional abilities.
