“…In the prevention and treatment of dental anxiety in children, the techniques found in the literature have shown good results as they are scientifically accepted and efective [38]. Among these techniques, one can cite the following: tell-show-do technique, introduced in 1959 by Adelson [39]; positive reinforcement technique, which consists in rewarding the child when the desired behaviour is achieved, thus motivating him or her for the next visits [37,40]; modelling technique, in which the child learns by observing [37]; voice control and distraction, whose goal is to change the child's focus and attention on an unpleasant moment or procedure [31]. However, we have been seeing children who have a fascination for technology.…”

“…In this case, the surgeon dentist makes a video showing models using the T-S-D technique during the dental care and the child, still in the waiting room, watched it on the iPad ® or smartphone and thus had an idea about the treatment. These approaches, when adapted to a computer screen and/or audio-visual glasses, can make the child less anxious during dental care [23,28,31,32]. Interestingly, the presence or absence of the parents did not influence the improvement of the child's behaviour during dental care [4,33].…”

“…The studies included were conducted between 2010 and 2019 in Saudi Arabia, Greece, India, Brazil, USA, Italy, and Switzerland, all written in English language [4,[18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33]. The samples ranged from 15 [32] to 306 [29] children aged between 3 [4,30] and 10 [18,25] years old.…”

Objective: To provide an overview of the most relevant studies on non-pharmacological behaviour management techniques for contemporary children, the so-called alpha generation, who undergo dental treatment. Material and Methods: A systematic search was performed on the Medline/PubMed and Google Scholar (grey literature) databases. The articles were read and data collected by two reviewers on an independent basis. Two reviewers collected data from the studies selected in tables structured by using the Rayyan QCRI software. The following data were extracted: year of study, child's age, child's gender, technique used. Results: A total of 322 articles were found, remaining only 17 after duplicates were removed and inclusion and exclusion criteria applied. The studies were conducted between 2010 and 2019

“…This type of studies [ 31 , 32 ] provides preliminary support for the use of ICT-enhanced interventions to improve oral hygiene for children with autism [ 33 , 34 ]. Providing dental care to patients with ASD may require modifying the traditional treatment plans and settings [ 33 , 34 ], which include many sensory stimuli that may affect the way children behave. Therefore, it is extremely important to think about functional ways to reduce these users’ anxiety and sensory hypersensitivity in order to increase their compliance with procedures and to carry out dental care as planned.…”

“Mom Let’s Go to the Dentist!” Preliminary Feasibility of a Tailored Dental Intervention for Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder in the Italian Public Health Service

et al. 2020

Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) show worse oral health than their peers. Their access to health services is, at present, inadequate: few high-quality interventions have been designed and implemented to improve their care procedures so far. The purpose of this study is to describe an experience of dental care supported by Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), for children with ASD in a public health service. In our study, 59 children (mean age 9.9 years; SD = 5.43) participated in the MyDentist project. It integrates classic dental care techniques with new practices for desensitization and fear control, delivered through an enhanced customized ICT-based intervention aiming at familiarizing the child with ASD with the medical setting and procedures. Two questionnaires were filled out by parents to describe the acceptability of the MyDentist experience for their children. Significant results were shown from T0 (before initiating MyDentist) to T1 (after 6 months of the MyDentist experience) regarding improved oral hygiene and cooperation during dental treatments. Families positively assessed the use of ICT support. In conclusion, the project demonstrated acceptability by parents, suggesting that public health dental care and prevention can be successfully implemented without resorting to costly pharmacological interventions (with potential side effects), taking better care of children’s health.

“…10 Despite these advantages, a search of PubMed (https:// www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/) (December 2020) revealed that few studies have evaluated the anxiety of Brazilian children using this instrument. [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19] In the studies cited, dental anxiety was assessed while using non-pharmacological behavior management techniques to compare the anxiety levels of children undergoing different procedures 13 , or being submitted to different behavior management techniques. 14,18 Other objectives were to monitor these levels in children with and without previous toothache experience over consecutive appointments, 17 or to determine associated factors.…”

Is dental anxiety associated with the behavior of sedated children?

et al. 2021

The aim of this cross-sectional study was to investigate factors associated with dental anxiety in children treated under moderate sedation. Prior to treatment, each child's dental anxiety was evaluated using the modified Venham Picture Test (VPT). Interviews were also conducted with parents/guardians to gather information on the child's dental anxiety (Corah's Dental Anxiety Scale [DAS]), age and sex, shyness or anxiety in the presence of strangers, and dental history, as well as socioeconomic factors. All the children were sedated, and had at least one tooth restored using the atraumatic restorative treatment technique. Child behavior was assessed using the Frankl scale. Data analysis involved descriptive statistics and bivariate tests. The median VPT score was 2.0 (range: 0 to 8). Children who were shy in the presence of strangers (yes: median 2.0 [0-8]; no: 0.5 [0-4]; p = 0.018), and those with negative behavior during dental care (negative: 3.0 [0-8]; positive: 1.0 [0-8]; p = 0.014) had greater anxiety. The child's dental anxiety was associated with the mother's education level (≤ 8 years: 4 [2-7]; > 8 years: 1 [0-8]; p = 0.016). The dental anxiety of children treated under sedation is associated with negative behavior, shyness, and the mother's education level.
