Abstract:

 



Purpose: the purpose of this study was to assess whether pediatric dentists have different preferences of Hall crown method delivery (1vist vs 2 visit)

 



Methods: There will be a survey sent via a hyperlink in e-mail to pediatric residents and pediatric dentists who have e-mail addresses available in the ADA and AAPD directories, respectively. The online survey software from surveymonkey.com will be used. The survey will be modeled after the survey utilized in McKnight-Hanes’s 1991 study. It will include two cases. Survey respondents will first be asked some demographic questions including 1) type of practitioner, 2) years in practice and 3) primary location of practice (region). Two pictures of intraoral radiographs associated with each case including age of patient will be provided. There will be a brief statement indicating that all patients are healthy, asymptomatic, semi cooperative, and that payment for services should not be considered a factor in treatment. In each case, a tooth will be specified and the dentist will be asked to recommend methods of treatment and reason (if electing for two visits treatment) from a list consisting of 3 options. Abstracts and full texts were explored to identify studies that described the Hall technique and its indication, contraindication, advantages, disadvantages, success, and failure in pediatric dentistry. 

 

 



Results: Results of the current study are pending as surveys are to be distributed. Statistical analysis will be completed once the study period has concluded.

 



Conclusion: The hypothesis is there is no significant difference in preference of Hall crown method delivery of treating caries not extending to pulp among pediatric (1visit vs 2 visit).
