Review: The Way To Approach A Pediatric Patient By Using Nonpharmacological Behaviour Management Techniques
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2018, Vol 17, Issue 4
Abstract
Behaviour management is a key factor in providing dental care for children. If the child’s behavior in dental office is not managed then it is difficult, if not impossible to carry out any needed dental care. It is the responsibility of the dental practitioner to provide best treatment to child patient by gaining patient’s cooperation. Different behaviour management techniques are available nowadays to manage the troublesome child. Determinants that influence the development of behavioral strategy for a young patient include disease status, child’s physical and mental development, parental characteristics and provider personality and capabilities. Different techniques used including- supportive office environment, “tell-show-do”, successive approximation, distraction and behaviour shaping must be matched to the characteristics of each child. Current cultural trends suggest that disciplinary forms of behaviour management techniques- such as hand-over-mouth, physical restraints and even voice control- are losing social acceptance.
