Summary

Behavior orientation is the cornerstone of the success of pediatric dentistry. The use of behavior management techniques enables children to learn appropriate behavior and coping skills, reduce anxiety, and facilitate the delivery of adequate oral health care. Some behavior guidance systems have been tried to be created. On the basis of the magic game, it has been tried to move the children away from the current real situation, the reality of dental treatment, to move forward in communication and successful results have been obtained. The main thing in the technique is to start the communication with the child in the waiting room of the dentist and to reduce the anxiety of the child by improving the self-efficacy perception of the child. The aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of question-answer behavior guidance technique in dental treatment in pediatric patients.

Pediatric Quiz Game

Investigator will start interacting with children upon their arrival and during their presence in the waiting room before entering the operating room. This will help to obtain better cooperation (frankl scale) and anxiety reductions (FIS and VPT) at different stages of the dental examination (e.g., entering the clinic, sitting on the dental chair, opening mouth, examination with mirror, probe, use of low-high-speed handpieces, ITR restoration). Pediatric Quiz is actually an ice-breaking quiz game developed for children, with the promise of a surprise gift at the end. It can be defined as "asking children basic questions on colors, animals, fruits and/or cities depending on the age of the child among which the child would choose him/herself and answer the question easily.
