Abstract | ||||
Objective: To evaluate the behavior management technique (Tell, show and do) and the psychological impact on the child and parents in dental practice. Material and Methods: In the present study 600 children were examined and assessed for the success of administration of local anesthesia in the dental office. The sample was divided into two main groups 300 in public practice and 300 in private practice. Within the 600 patients 400 patients were presented with the Tell, show and do technique directly by the dentist within the remaining 200 patients, 100 patients were presented the Tell, show and do technique by video presentation that was developed especially for this study. The remaining 100 patients were examined by the use of the voice control technique. The questionnaire that was done on all 600 patients was divided into pre-operative assessment, post-operative assessment, and Behavior rating scale. The pre-operative assessment included 17 different questions. The post-operative assessment included 14 different questions. The behavior rating scale included Frankl rating scale and anxiety rating scale. Results: The tell, show and do technique as well as the video presentation method showed to be more successful in the management of children during dental practice and demonstrated a higher level of success of administration of anesthesia in both genders. Tell show and do technique also is used more in the private sector rather than the public sector. Conclusion: Tell, show and do technique is a successful tool of behavior management technique in dental practice. | ||||
