Abstract
Distraction techniques in pediatric dentistry are crucial for managing anxiety and fear in young patients, ensuring a positive dental experience.These techniques aim to create a calm and supportive environment, promoting positive dental experiences for children and reducing fear associated with dental visits. Children frequently experience anxiety and apprehension when visiting the dentist, which can impact their cooperation and overall experience. Distraction techniques have emerged as valuable tools to divert attention away from dental procedures, thereby reducing fear and improving patient outcomes.Techniques encompassed various modalities, including audio-visual aids, interactive toys, virtual reality, and behavior guidance strategies. Thus these methods represent a pivotal aspect of contemporary pediatric dentistry, offering innovative solutions to mitigate anxiety and enhance patient cooperation. Continued research and integration of novel technologies will further refine these strategies, ultimately promoting positive dental experiences and long-term oral health in children.
