Purpose: The purpose of this pilot study is to investigate the incidence for failed follow up appointments after complete oral rehabilitation in the general anesthesia setting.

Methods: Encrypted electronic health records for patients from Naples Children and Education Foundation Pediatric Dental Center who received comprehensive dental treatment in the hospital setting at Physician's Regional Medical Center from dates 1/10/19-12/31/19 were reviewed.

Results: One hundred nine charts were reviewed.

Conclusion: The incidence for failure to follow-up was 36.7% in patients seen at PRMC for complete oral rehabilitation. The majority of patients seen for oral rehabilitation at PRMC in 2019 complied with follow-up recommendations.
