(Health-NewsWire.Net, September 10, 2016 ) San Clemente, California -- From the beginning, the majority of children are afraid to attend their dental appointments due to the creepy and frightening stories behind dental checkups. As a result, kids believing these false accusations are more likely to develop dental phobias. As a leading family dental practitioner, San Clemente Dentist is looking for ways to lessen their patient's anxiety and distress during their dental appointments.
With the goal of providing the highest standards in personalized dental care. San Clemente Dentist proudly shares the latest way of relieving child’s stress during dental checkups with the help of cartoons.
A research published in Acta Odontologia Scandinavica shows that, 1 out of 5 children are afraid of their dentist. As these children develop dental phobia, they are more likely to experience greater dental pain compared to children who are comfortable during the whole procedure.
To lessen their pain, audiovisual distraction in a form of cartoons is being played during the procedure. As expected, cartoons minimize patients distress and pain during the short dental treatment. According to San Clemente Dentist, the whole study begins by encouraging children aging from 7 to 9 years old to undergo a dental checkup at the Royal College of Dentistry. They will go through 3 different procedures, oral examinations, injection, and local anesthesia. During their dental procedures, half of the kids will receive an audiovisual distraction while the other half will face the procedure without any distraction.
As the researchers measure their patient's anxiety level and cooperative behavior, they found out that the children in the distraction group show less anxiety and are more cooperative compared to the children in the controlled group.
Therefore, the research concludes that use of audiovisual distractions like cartoons is a very useful technique in calming children as they underwent a dental treatment that they badly need. San Clemente Dentist supports the said research and swears to try out with their patients. As a trusted family dental practitioner, they pledge to provide their patients with the utmost care they need as they solve their dental issues and care for their oral health.
