Practitioner-related factors that may influence knowledge and confidence of TDI management in children; a scoping review
Lack of GDP knowledge of TDI management in children can be associated with being longer qualified, lacking exposure to TDIs, and having a poor self-evaluated knowledge. GDPs who are longer qualified tend to have greater confidence in managing TDIs. Increasing awareness of IADT guidelines is essential for all practitioners. Traumatology mobile applications featuring gamification could be used to engage and promote confidence of newly qualified dentists.
