Abstract
Background: Tell–Show–Do is the most commonly used behavior management technique in pediatric dentistry. Unlike many other nontraditional management techniques, there is some evidence that Centration is making its way into more dental clinics. AIM: To compare the efficacy of centration and tell show technique in behavior shaping of child during dental treatment. Method: 50 number of children of 4-7 years age were divided into two groups. The children in group A and Group B were prepared for dental examination by pediatric dentist using centration and tell show do method respectively. Each child’s heart rate were monitored during dental treatment. Results: Average heart rate over the entire treatment session was significantly lower among children in both groups. Encouraging result is obtained in Centration Technique. Conclusion: Centration is a technique worth practicing in pediatric dentistry.
