Digital vs. traditional dental molds for preschoolers
Part of Mental health, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study compares two ways of taking dental molds (digital vs. traditional) to see which one makes children feel less anxious and more comfortable. It is for young children who are cooperative and have never been to the dentist before.
