Objective: This retrospective study aimed to evaluate the characteristics and treatment modalities under general anesthesia (GA) in cases involving children with special health care needs (SHCN) and uncooperative healthy children (UHC). Materials and Methods: Data regarding children's age, gender, health status, and type of dental treatment were collected, GA and analgesic drugs used, and the results were statistically evaluated. Demographic data were analyzed descriptively, and results were reported as mean +/- standard deviation. Results: Out of 225 cases of scheduled GA, 131 were children who presented with SHCN and 94 were UHC. We found that children with SHCN required more restorative treatments than uncooperative children. There was a statistically significant difference in the American Society of Anesthesiologists scores in children with SHCN. Conclusion: In general, our study concludes that the medical history of patients can affect dental treatment scenarios and the post-operative approach.
