To explore the experiences and perceptions of children who underwent minimally invasive dentistry interventions and invasive dental interventions for caries prevention and management.
Electronic searches were conducted to identify studies that used qualitative data to assess the phenomenon of interest up to October 2024. Two reviewers conducted the selection of studies independently and in duplicate. The methodological quality of the studies was evaluated, and the final synthesised findings were graded. Data were analysed using a meta-aggregative approach.
The search strategy identified 2503 studies, of which eight were included. The methodological quality of the included studies was rated as good. Five categories were developed, leading to two synthesised key findings: dental fear and anxiety in children, and impressions of the guidance provided. Confidence in the synthesised findings was rated as high.
Children's views, as the end users of interventions, reveal factors that influence their acceptance, knowledge retention, coping strategies, and behavioural responses to dental interventions, regardless of the intervention's level of invasiveness. Findings assist paediatric dentists in tailoring communication and care, considering children's emotional self-regulation. Dentists and parents are crucial in fostering positive experiences. Interactive and repetitive methods improve oral health knowledge retention and promote lasting behavioural changes.
探讨接受微创牙科干预和侵入性牙科干预以预防和管理龋齿的儿童的经历和看法。
进行电子检索,以确定截至2024年10月使用定性数据评估感兴趣现象的研究。两名评审员独立且重复地进行研究选择。评估研究的方法学质量,并对最终综合结果进行分级。使用元聚合方法分析数据。
检索策略确定了2503项研究,其中八项被纳入。纳入研究的方法学质量被评为良好。形成了五个类别,得出两个综合关键结果:儿童的牙科恐惧和焦虑,以及对所提供指导的印象。对综合结果的信心被评为高。
作为干预最终用户的儿童观点揭示了影响他们对牙科干预的接受度、知识保留、应对策略和行为反应的因素,无论干预的侵入程度如何。研究结果有助于儿科牙医根据儿童的情绪自我调节来调整沟通和护理方式。牙医和家长在营造积极体验方面至关重要。互动和重复的方法可提高口腔健康知识的保留率,并促进持久的行为改变。
