简要总结
Distraction techniques are a key part of behavior management in pediatric dentistry, and introducing new methods like fidget spinners and kaleidoscopes could improve dental care delivery. Understanding which method is more effective will help pediatric dentists employ better anxiety management strategies and reduce the need for sedation or pharmacological interventions.
Moreover, both methods are inexpensive and easy to implement, making them highly practical in clinical settings
