Children's dentistry can be a challenge for both the patient and the dentist. The way a dentist interacts with the child patient will have a major influence on the success of any clinical or preventive care. In order to deliver high-quality dentistry to a child whilst also developing a positive attitude towards dental health, the dentist should have a good understanding of the factors that might affect the behaviour of children in the dental setting. A working knowledge of strategies to minimize anxiety and make positive behaviour more likely is essential, as is a grasp of how best to deal with anxiety or negative behaviour.
儿童牙科对患者和牙医来说都是一项挑战。牙医与儿童患者互动的方式将对任何临床或预防性护理的成功产生重大影响。为了给儿童提供高质量的牙科治疗，同时培养他们对口腔健康的积极态度，牙医应该充分了解可能影响儿童在牙科环境中行为的因素。掌握将焦虑降至最低并使积极行为更有可能出现的策略的实用知识至关重要，掌握如何最好地应对焦虑或消极行为也同样重要。
