Endodontically treated teeth should be prosthodontically managed properly to add life to the teeth, and hence the main aim of this study was to explore awareness, attitude, and practice of dental practitioners toward management of endodontically treated teeth and factors associated with it.
It was a cross-sectional, descriptive questionnaire study conducted among dental practitioners working in private clinics. The study was conducted in August 2019. The survey was conducted among 239 participants. In this study, a close-ended interview schedule was prepared for perception and practice of dental specialists.
Most of the dental professionals (31.79%) preferred full coverage crown for restoring the grossly decayed endodontically treated teeth. Awareness regarding prosthodontic management of endodontically treated teeth was better among specialists (13.75%) than bachelor's degree holders. Attitude was neutral among most of the study participants (46.86%) and practice scores toward prosthodontic management of endodontically treated teeth was good. Gender and degree were significantly associated ( = 0.02*) ( = 0.05*), ( = 0.00***) ( = 0.05*) with awareness and practice of study participants.
A majority of study subjects in this study had moderate awareness, neutral attitude, and good practice regarding restoration of endodontically treated teeth.
经过根管治疗的牙齿应进行适当的修复治疗以延长其使用寿命,因此本研究的主要目的是探讨牙科医生对经过根管治疗牙齿的管理的认识、态度和实践以及与之相关的因素。
这是一项对在私人诊所工作的牙科医生进行的横断面描述性问卷调查研究。该研究于2019年8月进行。对239名参与者进行了调查。在本研究中,针对牙科专家的认知和实践编制了一份封闭式访谈提纲。
大多数牙科专业人员(31.79%)倾向于用全冠修复严重龋坏的经过根管治疗的牙齿。专科医生(13.75%)对经过根管治疗牙齿的修复治疗管理的认识高于本科学历者。大多数研究参与者(46.86%)态度中立,对经过根管治疗牙齿的修复治疗实践得分良好。性别和学历与研究参与者的认识和实践显著相关(P = 0.02*)(P = 0.05*),(P = 0.00***)(P = 0.05*)。
本研究中的大多数研究对象对经过根管治疗牙齿的修复具有中等认识、中立态度和良好实践。
