Abstract
PURPOSE: Investigate the parental attitude toward behavior management techniques used in pediatric dentistry. METHODS AND MATERIALS: Parents watched a videotape that showed these techniques and then filled a questionnaire. RESULTS: Tell-Show-Do, Positive Reinforcement, and Distraction were highly approved. Voice Control, Parent Separation, and Nonverbal Communication were moderately approved. The Hand-Over-Mouth, Nitrous Oxide Sedation, Conscious Sedation, and General Anesthesia were least approved. CONCLUSION: The general parental attitudes were positive regarding the behavioral management techniques.
