Efficacy of scenario-experiential behavior management techniques on dental fear in preschool children with dental caries: a randomized controlled trial

The findings of this study indicated scenario-experiential behavior management techniques showed significant advantages in alleviating dental fear in preschool children and improving their compliance during visits. Through one-on-one interactive games, both children and their parents receive clear explanations of dental procedures, which helps improve their overall satisfaction. However, due to some limitations of this study, it would be necessary to conduct randomized controlled trials with large sample size, long follow-up time and more standardized treatment and evaluation methods in the future to provide more accurate and clinically meaningful results.

Abstract

The findings of this study indicated scenario-experiential behavior management techniques showed significant advantages in alleviating dental fear in preschool children and improving their compliance during visits. Through one-on-one interactive games, both children and their parents receive clear explanations of dental procedures, which helps improve their overall satisfaction. However, due to some limitations of this study, it would be necessary to conduct randomized controlled trials with large sample size, long follow-up time and more standardized treatment and evaluation methods in the future to provide more accurate and clinically meaningful results.
