To Restrain or Refrain: Determination of Parental Attitude towards the Child's Experience with Protective Stabilization.

Background: To overcome disruptive behavior of children, pediatric dentists rely on various behavior management techniques. When dental therapy is pertinent and nonaversive techniques like tell-show-do, voice control, and positive reinforcement are ineffective; the role of advanced behavior guidance techniques like physical restraints and protective stabilization is of paramount importance.

Aim: The study was carried out to elicit parents' opinion and record their response to their children's experience who underwent dental treatment with an extra assistant for protective stabilization.

Survival Function of Clinical and Radiographic Success of Three Obturating Materials in Primary Teeth at 3, 6 and 9 Months Periodic Intervals - A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial.

The study aims to assess clinically and radiographically the success of zinc oxide eugenol, metapex, and endoflas as root canal obturating materials in primary teeth over 3, 6, and 9 months of time intervals. The randomized controlled trial was performed in 60 primary molars of 36 children aged between 4 and 9 years. Permanent restorations were given and stainless steel crowns were placed for the treated tooth.
