“…There is a high prevalence of dental caries, high unmet oral health needs, and low experience of restorative treatment. Added to this scenario, as in other parts of the world [ 34 ], the use of preventive oral health services, in the application of PATF, is very low. In the world literature, very few studies have been done on the subject, since the majority are studies on the effectiveness of dental caries prevention.…”

Objective: To determine the frequency and associated factors of visits to the dentist in the last year by Nicaraguan schoolchildren to receive professionally applied topical fluoride (PATF). Material and Methods: A cross-sectional study was designed in children from public schools in the city of León, Nicaragua, were included. A series of socioeconomic, sociodemographic, and behavioural variables were collected through a questionnaire. The dependent variable was the visit to the dentist to receive professionally applied topical fluoride in the last year, which was dichotomised as (0) Did not receive PATF and (1) Yes received PATF. In the statistical analysis, binary logistic regression was used. Results: The mean age of the students included was 9 years, and 49.9% were girls. The prevalence of visits to the dentist in the last year to receive PATF was 3.1%. In the multivariate model, the associated characteristics (p < 0.05) were: female (OR = 2.73, 95% CI = 1.34–4.50); the positive attitude of the mother to the oral health of her child (OR = 2.15, 95% CI = 1.03–4.50); and the best socioeconomic position (OR = 2.68, 95% CI = 1.36—5.31). Conclusions: The prevalence of visits to the dentist in the last year to receive professionally applied topical fluoride was very low (3.1%). The results of the socioeconomic position suggest the existence of certain inequalities in oral health. It is necessary to implement policies and programs aimed at improving this scenario.

“…Good communication skill as well as professionalism of the whole dental team is readily recognized by the parents and this would oblige them to bring their children back for follow up or treatment of any new ailment. 4,5,10 We must state that this study had some limitations. It was a very basic survey with some very basic questions and small sample size.…”

“…8 Whatever may be the situation, patient health and satisfaction are the top priorities and for this there should be room for constant improvement by working out on every constructive criticism. 9,10,11 As satisfaction is a most important com-ponent of health service performance evaluation, it is important to know about the different factors which affect patient satisfaction using dental services. Since children are in no position to provide correct evaluation of a departmental performance, their parents are required to use their judgment in evaluating and expressing their satisfaction level of the dental care services provided at the Hospitals.…”
