Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive motor neuron disease. Methods of dental treatment of a young male patient with ALS are presented. This case is unusual in several respects: the early age of onset, the long survival time, and the period of time in which the case was followed in our dental clinic. Aspects of ALS which are of concern to dentistry, as related to clinical care and strategies for effective oral health delivery, are presented.
