The present study aimed to evaluate the association between parenting styles, child's behavior in dental setting and dental caries status. Children aged 3-7 years on their first dental visit were included in the study. Their parents were asked to complete Parenting Style Dimension Questionnaire (PSDQ) to assess their parenting style. Oral prophylaxis was performed for the children and their behavior was assessed using Frankl behavior rating scale. Their caries status was recorded using DMFT/deft index. Out of 315 parents, 240 parents exhibited authoritative parenting style, 45 exhibited permissive and 30 exhibited authoritarian parenting style. Permissive parenting was associated with four-fold increase in the child's negative dental behavior and authoritarian parenting showed two-fold increase in the negative behavior of children compared to authoritative parenting. Children of both authoritative and authoritarian parents showed less caries status and the permissive parenting depicted threefold increase in the caries status compared to authoritative parenting. Children of both the permissive and authoritarian parents showed more negative dental behavior than children of authoritative parents. Children of permissive parents showed increased caries status compared to the children of authoritative parents.
本研究旨在评估养育方式、儿童在牙科环境中的行为与龋齿状况之间的关联。3至7岁首次就诊的儿童被纳入本研究。他们的父母被要求完成养育方式维度问卷（PSDQ）以评估其养育方式。对儿童进行了口腔预防，并使用弗兰克尔行为评定量表评估他们的行为。使用DMFT/deft指数记录他们的龋齿状况。在315名父母中，240名父母表现出权威型养育方式，45名表现出放任型，30名表现出专制型养育方式。与权威型养育方式相比，放任型养育方式会使儿童的负面牙科行为增加四倍，专制型养育方式会使儿童的负面行为增加两倍。权威型和专制型父母的孩子龋齿状况较少，与权威型养育方式相比，放任型养育方式使龋齿状况增加了三倍。放任型和专制型父母的孩子比权威型父母的孩子表现出更多的负面牙科行为。与权威型父母的孩子相比，放任型父母的孩子龋齿状况有所增加。
