“… 37 , 39 , 44 , 68 , 69 Studies have reported OHRQoL improvement after primary 37 , 40 , 57 , 66 and secondary 67 nonsurgical root canal treatment as well as surgical endodontic treatment. 52 Conversely, studies have also reported no significant difference in OHRQoL after nonsurgical treatment. 60 , 63 These contrasting findings may be explained by the heterogeneity of endodontic patients in the disease- (ie, preoperative symptoms), treatment- (ie, complications), and patient-related factors (ie, experience of the treatment, psychosocial factors, and patient values).…”

ObjectivesFor people, it is challenging to be conscious of the appropriate toothbrushing time to maintain good oral health in daily life. The aim of this study was to preliminarily examine the utility of an application (app) that combines a toothbrushing timer and information on toothbrushes.Materials and MethodsWe developed the “Toothbrushing Timer with Information on Toothbrushes” app to help users ensure appropriate toothbrushing time and learn about the beneficial characteristics of toothbrushes. A total of 18 participants were registered for the study. At baseline (T0) and after 1 month (T1) of app usage, study participants answered a digital questionnaire that comprised three questions on oral health practice, self‐efficacy in oral hygiene, and quality of life related to oral health (Oral Health Impact Profile‐14 [OHIP‐14]).ResultsFive participants were excluded from the analysis as they did not answer the digital questionnaire. Finally, 13 participants completed the survey with a follow‐up of 1 month. The 13 participants were grouped into health professionals (n = 8) and non‐health professionals (n = 5). The total scores for oral health practice and self‐efficacy related to oral hygiene increased after a month of app usage in health professional and non‐health professional groups. However, there were no significant differences between T0 and T1 in either group. The total score of OHIP‐14 was lower at T1 than at T0 in both groups. Therefore, participants showed better oral health practice, self‐efficacy in oral hygiene, and quality of life related to oral health at T1 compared with that at T0.ConclusionsOur app showed positive results for the users and is useful in maintaining and promoting oral health awareness and practice. However, our pilot study lacks sufficient power and did not yield significant differences. Therefore, high‐quality clinical trials with larger sample sizes are warranted for further improvement and evaluation.

Background Postoperative dental pain is pervasive and can affect a patient’s quality of life. Adopting a patient-centric approach to pain management involves having contemporaneous information about the patient’s experience of pain and using it to personalize care. Objective In this study, we evaluated the use of a mobile health (mHealth) platform to collect pain-related patient-reported outcomes over 7 days after the patients underwent pain-inducing dental procedures; we then relayed the information to the dentist and determined its impact on the patient’s pain experience. Methods The study used a cluster-randomized experimental study design with an intervention arm where patients were prompted to complete a series of questions relating to their pain experience after receiving automated text notifications on their smartphone on days 1, 3, 5, and 7, with the resulting information fed back to dentists, and a control arm where patients received usual care. Providers were randomized, and patients subsequently assumed the enrollment status of their providers. Providers or their staff identified eligible patients and invited them to participate in the study. Provider interviews and surveys were conducted to evaluate acceptance of the mHealth platform. Results A total of 42 providers and 1525 patients participated. For the primary outcome (pain intensity on a 1 to 10 scale, with 10 being the most painful), intervention group patients reported an average pain intensity of 4.8 (SD 2.6), while those in the control group reported an average pain intensity of 4.7 (SD 2.8). These differences were not significant. There were also no significant differences in secondary outcomes, including pain interference with activity or sleep, patient satisfaction with pain management, or opioid prescribing. Patient surveys revealed reluctance to use the app was mostly due to technological challenges, data privacy concerns, and a preference for phone calls over texting. Providers had high satisfaction with the app and suggested integrating additional features, such as an in-system camera for patients to upload pictures and videos of the procedural site, and integration with the electronic health record system. Conclusions While the mHealth platform did not have a significant impact on acute postoperative pain experience, patients and providers indicated improvement in patient-provider communication, patient-provider relationship, postoperative complication management, and ability to manage pain medication prescribing. Expanded collaboration between mHealth developers and frontline health care providers can facilitate the applicability of these platforms, further help improve its integration with the normal clinic workflow, and assist in moving toward a more patient-centric approach to pain management.
