| description | <h3>Purpose</h3><p dir="ltr">To elucidate the level of parental knowledge in Qatar regarding the management of avulsed teeth.</p><h3>Methods</h3><p dir="ltr">A self-administered questionnaire was completed by 400 parents attending their children’s routine dental appointments. The questionnaire comprised of items on sociodemographics, parents’ prior knowledge on management of avulsion, parents’ willingness to replant avulsed teeth at the site of injury, and parents’ opinion as to the best format for future parental education on the management of dental trauma. Univariate and multivariate logistic regressions were employed to assess the association between sociodemographic status and knowledge in the management of avulsion.</p><h3>Results</h3><p dir="ltr">The overall mean score of parents’ knowledge was (23%). Only 23.3% (n = 93) of parents thought that it was possible to reinsert an avulsed permanent tooth. Out of those, only 12.9% (n = 12) indicated willingness to reinsert the tooth back into its socket, while 48.4% (n = 49) indicated that an avulsed tooth should be stored using physiological media. Less than one third (27.8%) indicated that they would seek professional help within 30 min. Males were less likely to give favourable answers when compared to females (OR = 0.43, 95% CI = 0.22–0.84). Age groups “31–40” years and “41–50” years were more likely to give favourable answers when compared to 20–30 years age group (OR = 2.8, 95% CI = 1.05–8.0and OR = 3.8, 95% CI = 1.3–11.48; respectively).</p><h3>Conclusion</h3><p dir="ltr">This study highlights critical deficiencies in parental knowledge on the management of tooth avulsion and the need to improve parents’ knowledge by developing easily accessible onsite emergency management tools.</p><h2>Other Information</h2><p dir="ltr">Published in: European Archives of Paediatric Dentistry<br>License: <a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0" target="_blank">https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0</a><br>See article on publisher's website: <a href="https://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s40368-023-00829-8" target="_blank">https://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s40368-023-00829-8</a></p> |
