Aim : This study was conducted to assess the oral health status of deaf and mute children attending special school. Materials and Methods : A cross-sectional descriptive survey was conducted among 137 deaf and mute children with ages ranging from 7 to 18 years. A total of 76 males (55.47%) with mean age of $14.2{pm}4.5$ and 61 females (44.53%) with mean age of $13.8{pm}4.2$ years and studying in a school for deaf and mute children in Warora were considered. Data were collected using a standard method recommended by WHO for the oral health survey in 1977. Oral health status was assessed using OHIS, Loe and Sinless, and CPI Index along with DMFT and DMFS Index. Gingival position was considered for measuring attachment loss. Statistical analysis was performed using the SPSS software package (version 17.0). Results : The mean DMFT was found to be $2.53{pm}1.72$, and mean DMFS, $3.37{pm}3.16$. The prevalence of dental caries was pegged at 35.32%, with mean OHIS score at $1.49{pm}0.76$. Overall gingival index among deaf and mute children was $0.81{pm}1.4$, whereas that for the upper arch and lower arch was $0.92{pm}0.84$ and $1.19{pm}0.95$, respectively. The mean score for the CPI Index among deaf and mute children was found to be $0.42{pm}0.32$. Gingival clinical attachment loss was found to be $0.26{pm}0.15mm$. Conclusion : These findings suggest that children with hearing disabilities can also have good oral hygiene comparable to normal individuals of the same age group. These results may be attributed to the fact that the study sample was taken from a single school of a private organization with a well-equipped dental setup.
