“…Parenting style has longitudinal effects on the behavior of the child [ 22 ]. As observed in other studies [ 23 ], positive parenting styles, such as authoritative parenting, had a positive effect on children; this style includes bidirectional communication, high parental affection, allowing children some autonomy, and using positive discipline instead of punishment [ 24 ]. On the contrary, in previous studies, and coinciding with the results obtained in the present study, poorer communication and less affection, as well as greater psychological control by parents (authoritarian parenting style), were associated with an adverse impact on children’s oral health [ 3 , 23 , 25 ].…”

The type of parenting style influences the way children cope with problems and can create states of anxiety that can even alter their eating habits, which can cause problems in their oral health. The present study aimed to find out which parenting style is more favorable for the oral health of their children. In this cross-sectional study, 186 children (aged 8–15 years) were examined to assess the mean Decayed/Missing/Filled teeth (DMFT + dmft) index, and they were asked to complete the State–Trait Anxiety Inventory, the Parenting Style Scale, and questions about their oral hygiene habits. On the other hand, their parents answered the Parental Feeding Style Questionnaire and the Children’s Eating Behavior Questionnaire. Results showed that a worse oral health status was associated with a higher state of anxiety, more overeating, more emotional eating, and higher psychological control. A higher rate of missing teeth was associated with increased undereating and overeating. Emotional eating was positively related to psychological control. State of anxiety, overeating, and parental psychological control predicted 24.6% of DMFT + dmft. In addition, emotional eating had a moderating effect in DMFT + dfmt only in those with low levels of affection and communication. In conclusion, high psychological control and low levels of parental affection and communication will increase the state of anxiety in children, influencing their caries rate.

“…However, managing daily complexities is a major challenge for good parenting. It is well-known that parenting styles strongly influence children’s oral health [ 11 , 44 ]. Duijster and co-workers (2015) state that parental confidence in controlling their child’s oral health and positive parenting practices lead to lower caries levels [ 45 ].…”

Background Families’ understanding towards oral health problems among young children is poorly studied. More insight into parents’ experiences, especially of those living in disadvantaged neighbourhoods, is needed to address persistent oral health inequalities. This qualitative study aims to explore parental perspectives on children’s oral health (≤ 4 years) and the opportunities they see to improve children’s oral health. Methods Forty-seven mothers and five fathers with different migration backgrounds from a disadvantaged neighbourhood in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, participated in our study. Semi-structured interviews (n = 27), participant observations (n = 7) and one focus group discussion were conducted. A thematic data analysis was used. Results Parents describe their daily life with young children as busy, hectic and unpredictable. Parents seem to be most concerned about parenting. Mothers, in particular, feel fully responsible for raising their children and managing daily complexities. While most parents value their children’s oral health, they all experience challenges. Parents find it hard to limit daily candy intake and to handle unwilling children during tooth brushing. They feel limited support for these issues from their household, social network and professionals. Conclusion Parental struggles in children’s oral health are complex and interrelated as they occur across family, societal, community and professional levels. Given the complex daily reality of families with young children, establishing and maintaining healthy oral health habits seems not at the top of parents’ minds. They ask for advice in the upbringing of their children backed up by social support, increased attention to children’s oral health within the community and professional assistance. Collaborating with parents as knowledgeable partners might be the first step in acting upon the endeavour to address oral health inequality among young children.

“…Due to the potential for further complications from type-1 diabetes mellitus, including complications related to oral health, appropriate prevention and treatment strategies are needed [8][9]. Parenting has an important role in maintaining children's oral health conditions, because positive parenting can have a good impact on children's oral health and family welfare and children's sugar levels are more controlled [2], on the other hand, if the mother's parenting is less responsive it can have a negative impact on children with diabetes mellitus and can increase diabetes distress in children [10].…”
