“…To the best of our knowledge, this is the first Englishlanguage study addressing this issue. Moreover, previous studies on parental involvement in pediatric dentistry have been largely focused on assessing the effect of variables like parental presence during operation (34), parents' dental fear and anxiety (15,24,25), and child-rearing practice on child's behavior (2,22,23,(28)(29)(30). In the present study, the behavior was found to be significantly better in the intervention group than in the control group.…”

“…Overall, the child's dental behavior plays a key role in providing adequate treatment (15). Different surveys have investigated the association between the child's dental behavior and variables like age, gender, maturity, family background (16,17), emotional condition (2), unfavorable medical or dental history (15,18,19), personality traits (2,15,16), temperament (20-23), parents' dental fear and anxiety (15,16,19,(24)(25)(26), parental attitudes and perceptions (27), and parental rearing style (2,22,23,(28)(29)(30). The family atmosphere, where the child has been raised, also seems to affect the multidimensionality of his/her personality (2, 15, Definitely negative Pronounced refusal of the dental procedure, crying forcefully, being fearful, or any other overt evidence of extreme negativism.…”

Background: Behavior management techniques are an integral component of pediatrics dental visits. Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of child pretreatment conditioning by mothers on the dental behavior of children during dental treatment. Methods: Following a randomized clinical trial design, this study was conducted on 72 child-mother dyads, attending the pediatric dental department of Zahedan University of Medical Sciences (southeast of Iran). The children were 3 to 6 years old and required pulpotomy of one asymptomatic carious primary mandibular molar under inferior alveolar nerve block anesthesia. The dyads were randomly divided into control and intervention groups. Data on age and gender of children, mother’s age, and parents’ education were collected. Mothers in the intervention group received a brochure, containing information on how to prepare the child at home to better cope with the dental procedure. Those in the control group received no intervention. A one-month interval was set between the randomization and treatment. For both groups, an experienced pedodontist performed pulpotomy and stainless steel crown placement in a single session. The dental behavior of children during the operation was scored by a blind instructed and calibrated observer, using the Franckle behavior rating scale. Data were analyzed using the chi-square test, Fisher’s exact test, and Mann-Whitney U test in SPSS version 20 at a significance level of 0.05. Results: The child dental behavior in the intervention group was more frequently acceptable than their counterparts, and a significant difference was found between the groups (P = 0.047). The intervention was successful, regardless of the child's gender and age, mother’s age, and parents’ education (P > 0.05). Conclusions: Based on the results, dental practitioners can promote child behavior by engaging mothers to prepare their children before dental procedures.

“…Sayed[20] concluded that projecting the visual output of the dental procedures is effective in distracting the child patient during the procedure and subsequently reducing dental anxiety. In contrast, Mishra[21] stated that the multimedia was not found to be significantly affecting the behavior of the child in dental operatory.…”

Objective:Anxiety towards dental procedures are common difficulties that may be experienced by dental patients all over the world. This study focused on evaluating the dental anxiety frequency and its relationship with age, gender, educational level, and past dental visits among patients attending the outpatient clinics of College of Dentistry, Al Jouf University, Saudi Arabia.Material and Methods:A total of 221 patients, aged 21–50 years were selected for the study. A questionnaire comprising the Modified Dental Anxiety Scale (MDAS) was used to measure the level of dental anxiety. Data was analyzed using SPSS version 20.Results:The mean anxiety score of the 221 patients was 11.39 (SD ± 2.7). Independent t-test showed a significant variation between the age groups with regards to their mean overall anxiety score (P < 0.05), which reduced with increasing age. A significant difference was found by independent t-test in the mean total score between male and female groups and regarding previous dental visit (P < 0.05). Regarding education level, there was no significant difference between the groups (P > 0.05).Conclusion:Younger patients, female, and patients with previous unpleasant dental experience were associated with increased MDAS score.Clinical Significance:The present study was done for better patient management and proper treatment plan development for dentally anxious patients.

“…They found that SES was not correlated with DA. On the other hand, Mishra et al in 2016 (26) found that patients with high SES had the highest incidence of negative behavior. In addition, Jamali Z et al in 2017 (12) found that children with DA belonged to high and middle SES.…”

INTRODUCTION: The socioeconomic status (SES) of the family has a direct effect on children's media habits and exposure hours to media which could be a factor for development of behavior and anxiety problems among children. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to assess the impact of SES on children's behavior management problems (BMP)/dental anxiety (DA) during dental treatment and their exposure to media in Alexandria, Egypt. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A group of 95 patients with age range from 5 to 8 years with simple carious primary molars enrolled in the study.Socioeconomic status was assessed using Fahmy and Elsherbini Scale and media habits were assessed by a questionnaire answered by the mother or the father during the first visit of each patient. After one week, dental procedure was done and behavior management problems/ dental anxiety were scored using Frankl Rating Scale and Clinical Anxiety Rating Scale respectively. RESULTS: There was no statistically significant relation between socioeconomic status, BMP/DA and exposure to media. However, BMP/DA was the highest at very low level, violent media exposure was the highest at middle level, exposure hours to media was the highest at both high and middle levels and finally, introduction to media exposure began at very young age range in high social level while it was at older age range in the very low social level in Alexandria, Egypt. CONCLUSION: Behavior management problems and DA were more associated with very low social level while total exposure hours to media was more associated with high and middle social levels in Egypt. However, there was no statistically significant relation between socioeconomic status, children's BMP/DA and their exposure to media.
