Indian paediatricians want to know more
about oral health
By Dental Tribune
International
GHAZIABAD, India: Nearly
half of all children in India have
early childhood caries (ECC), and
research shows that reducing ECC
incidence requires the participation of healthcare practitioners
who work with children and caregivers. Researchers at Manav
Rachna Dental College in the
northern state of Haryana recently
surveyed paediatricians to assess
their perspectives and knowledge
relating to oral care, and they found
that older clinicians working in hospitals or universities had a more
positive attitude towards paediatric dental care, and most respondents agreed that medical curricula
should include more oral health
education.
The study focused on paediatricians working in the western regions of the northern state of Uttar
Pradesh, and it drew 600 respon-
dents, who mainly worked in hospital or university settings. Nearly
half had ten or fewer years of clinical experience.
The vast majority (87.00%)
knew the correct age for a child's
first dental visit and 83.57% accurately identified ineffective methods of alleviating teething discomfort. The primary causes of caries
were recognised by 72.59%, and
85.59% understood the factors that
contribute to bottle mouth caries.
Gaps in knowledge were identified
relating to the bacteria involved in
bottle mouth caries and the critical
pH level for tooth demineralisation,
which was correctly identified by
just 79.76%.
In the area of dental hygiene,
90.8% supported the inclusion of
oral health education in medical
curricula for children, and 81.8%
recognised the need to educate
healthcare providers about caries
prevention and infant oral health.
The vast majority (88.70%) fa-
voured collaboration with paediatric dentists to combat ECC and advance children's oral health, and
95.74% agreed that their role in
providing dental healthcare advice
to parents was essential.
Discussing the results, the researchers highlighted “an encouraging pattern: a significant proportion of practitioners had deep expertise in critical facets of child
dental treatment”. Nonetheless,
they pointed out that just 80.05%
of participants agreed with incorporating oral health check-ups into
daily paediatric practice, indicating
that integration of dental care into
broader medical practice remains a
topic of debate.
“The data underscores a commendable understanding and positive attitude toward the preventive
aspects of dental health among
participants. Yet, it also pinpoints
areas, like knowledge about critical
pH levels for tooth demineralisation, where continued education is

imperative,” the researchers concluded.
The study, titled “Reconnoitering the dental knowledge and attitude of pediatricians in the West-
ern Uttar Pradesh region of India,
was published online on 10 May
2024 in Cureus.
