Abstract

Background and Objective: Children’s dental fear is one of the most important challenges that pediatric dentistry faces. Several factors play an important role in children’s dental fear. Home quarantine, changes in routine life and economic disadvantages have resulted in emotional changes in parents and children during COVID-19 pandemic. The aim of this study is to evaluate the levels of children’s dental fear, parental anxiety and their possible correlation during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Material and Methods: The present cross-sectional study comprised one hundred and four children aged 6-12-year-old and their parents. The level of parental anxiety was evaluated using Spielberger state-trait anxiety inventory. CFSS-DS (Children Fear Schedule Survey-Dental Subscale) questionnaire assessed the child’s dental fear. Independent t-test, ANOVA and Pearson correlation coefficient were used for data analysis.
Results: There were significant correlations between the level of parent’s state and trait anxiety and child’s dental fear (respectively P value=0.009 and P value=0.000). However girls showed insignificant higher levels of dental fear compared with boys (P value=0.175), children younger than 9 years old and children with a previous dental treatment had significantly higher dental fear scores (respectively P value=0.006 and P value=0.002). Age, gender and level of education did not show a significant effect on the level of parental anxiety (respectively P value=0.630, P value=0.874 and P value=0.198).
Conclusion: The study has resulted in a significant correlation between parental state-trait anxiety and children’s dental fear.

Abstract

Background and objectives: Microleakage at the interface of tooth structure and fissure sealant plays a crucial role in failure of the treatment. This in vitro study aimed to determine the microleakage of self-adhesive flowable composite resins as pit and fissure sealants.
Material and Methods: 60 healthy extracted premolar teeth were randomly divided into the 4 groups (n=15), group 1) clinpro sealants (control), group 2) flowable composite resin with bonding agent (total-etch), group 3) flowable composite resin with self-etch bonding agent, and group 4) self-adhesive composite resin. After thermocycling the specimens were immersed in 2% methylene blue for 48 hours and then sectioned in the buccolingual direction. The microleakage was assessed by dye penetration using a stereomicroscope at 15X magnification. Data analysis was performed using SPSS version 18.0 as well as Mann-Whitney and Kruskal-Wallis tests.
Results: There was a statistically significant difference in microleakage score between the groups (P-value = 0.006). The lowest mean of microleakage level was observed in the flowable composite group with total-etch bonding (group 2) 1.26±0.96, followed by the Clinpro sealant group (group 1) 1.62±1.20, and then the self-adhesive composite group (group 4) 1.85±1.00.
Conclusion: Based on the results of this study, the microleakage of self-adhesive composite resin revealed no significant difference with conventional fissure sealant; however, the microleakage of these composite resin was higher than flowable composite resin with total-etch bonding agent.
