“…So, it is a major obstacle to a trust-building relationship between the doctors and the patients, resulting in difficult management of behaviour, deliberate avoidance of seeking proper medical and dental care, ill health and ailments. 3,4 Wright has classified child behaviour into three categories: pre-cooperative, cooperative and uncooperative. The pediatric patient can fall into one of these categories depending upon their age and the complexity of treatments they encounter.…”

INTRODUCTION: Untreated caries lesions, painful treatment, and emergency cases in children at pre-school age may lead to increased anxiety and fear of future dental treatment. Many children have unfavorable behavior. The main difference in the treatment of children and adults is behavior management. In cases of lack of cooperation from the child and inefficiency of the methods of behavior management it is necessary for the dental treatment to be done under general anesthesia. AIM: The aim of this article is to show the possibility for high esthetic dental treatment under general anesthesia. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The object of the clinical study was an uncooperative child with atypical form of early childhood caries (ECC), whose behavior was modified through pharmacological agents. For the restorations of the decayed teeth, a highly esthetic nanohybrid composite Tokuyama Estelite Asteria was used. RESULTS: A 4-year-old child came to the dental office with pain of dental origin. The child was definitely negative, uncooperative, with strong fear of dental treatment. The lack of cooperation during the examination imposed that the dental restoration of carious lesions with composite restorations and extractions of teeth diagnosed with pulp necrosis should be done under general anesthesia. CONCLUSION: Тreatment under general anesthesia improves the conditions for highly esthetic nanohybrid restorations and avoids the eventual psychological trauma the child might get during the conventional methods of treatment. Achieving high esthetic and long-lasting results without any complications is the main goal of the treatment under general anesthesia.

Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of gift-giving on the patient's behavior. We hypothesized that it is possible to improve the relationship between a doctor and a patient by giving the visiting patient gifts as such gesture may boost her confidence in the doctor, help built personable relationship, and thereby facilitate examination. Materials and Methods For this study, we selected pediatric patients aged 3 to 12 years, who visited pediatric clinic of Dr. Sheikh Hospital of Mashhad. Patients were divided into two groups. One group received a gift (stickers) after examination and prescription. The criterion for evaluating patients' behavior was parental opinion, and the questionnaire was completed in two stages. The Chi-square test was used to compare the behavior of the patients, and data were analyzed by SPSS software. Results In total, 194 people participated that included 74 boys and 120 girls. There was a significant difference at the 99% level between the control and intervention groups in the variables of stress, the desire to go to the doctor, fear reduction between visits, regular use of the drug, cooperation with the doctor, the desire for re-referral, and insistence on referring to the same physician after receiving the gift. There was also a significant difference at the 95% level between two groups in terms of the expression of physical problems by kids. However, there was no significant difference in the level of stress before the receipt of the gift, the desire and willingness to refer to the doctor before receiving the gift, and the waiting time tolerance to enter the doctor's room. Conclusion We found that gifts motivate more appropriate behaviors in kids when referring to a doctor.
