Abstract

BACKGROUND AND AIM

Literature search shows scarcity of information regarding the use of Dental Operating Microscope (DOM) in children. There are various factors that limit the use of this novel technology by Pediatric Dentists in their practice. The aim of this study is to assess the knowledge, attitude and practice of pediatric dentist regarding DOM use in children.

METHOD

The present study was a descriptive web based questionnaire study conducted among 363 Pediatric Dentists (PDs) of India. A close-ended questionnaire was prepared to test the KAP regarding microscope use among PDs. Results obtained were analyzed using descriptive analysis in SPSS software and correlation was studied using chi-square test where statistical significance was observed at p < 0.05.

RESULTS

A response rate of 82.1% was observed. Majority (88.9%) of the pediatric dentists were aware of Dental operating Microscope (DOM) usage in their field, however, only 61.4% were aware of its magnification levels. 76.5% participants responded 12clock position to be the ideal position. Majority (94.0%) agreed that DOM is helpful in locating canals in deciduous teeth. 70.5% think that DOM can increase apprehension of children. 85.2% believed that DOM can aid in behavior management of children through its live visual output. However, 84.2% of the pediatric dentists hadn't used DOM in their practice.

CONCLUSION

The knowledge, attitude and practice regarding dental operating microscope among pediatric dentists in India is limited. In the foreseeable future, the use of magnification is likely to become the standard of practice in dentistry.

摘要

背景与目的

文献检索显示，关于牙科手术显微镜（DOM）在儿童中的应用，相关信息匮乏。有多种因素限制了儿科牙医在临床实践中使用这项新技术。本研究的目的是评估儿科牙医在儿童中使用DOM的知识、态度和实践情况。

方法

本研究是一项基于网络的描述性问卷调查研究，对印度的363名儿科牙医（PDs）进行了调查。准备了一份封闭式问卷，以测试儿科牙医在显微镜使用方面的知识、态度和实践情况。使用SPSS软件进行描述性分析，对所得结果进行分析，并使用卡方检验研究相关性，在p < 0.05时观察到统计学显著性。

结果

观察到的回复率为82.1%。大多数（88.9%）儿科牙医了解其所在领域牙科手术显微镜（DOM）的使用情况，然而，只有61.4%的人了解其放大倍数。76.5%的参与者认为12点位置是理想位置。大多数（94.0%）人同意DOM有助于定位乳牙根管。70.5%的人认为DOM会增加儿童的恐惧。85.2%的人认为DOM可以通过其实时视觉输出帮助儿童行为管理。然而，84.2%的儿科牙医在临床实践中未使用过DOM。
