The child management behaviour in paediatric clinic is the way by which the dental health care team effectively and efficiently performs treatment for a child. Management of children in the paediatric clinic is complex balancing act involving the child, parent and the dentist. To provide dental care for children good communication skills are necessary. Anxiety is a recognised personality trail, and there are some other factors which were found to increase the subsistence of behaviour problems during dental procedure. Behaviour management is widely agreed to be a key factor supplying dental care for children. Certainly, if a child's behaviour in the dental surgery/office cannot be managed then it is not easy to hold out any dental care that is needed.
