Abstract
This study aims to understand the characteristics of the dental visit, and to evaluate the compliance with regular check-up of infants who visited Wonkwang University Daejeon Dental Hospital(WKUDH) from January 2008 to December 2017.
A retrospective analysis of clinical data including chief complaint, visit route, performed treatment option and pattern of recall visit for 3 years after the first visit was conducted based on the electronic medical record. The compliance with a regular check-up of each individual was evaluated according to the intervals and the number of recall visits.
Within 321 infants, 19.3% of the participants were under 6 months old whereas 80.7% were between 6 months and 1 year old. While the presence of natal/neonatal teeth was the most frequent chief complaint of infants under 6 months old was, dental trauma was the most common one of the infants between 6 months and 1 year old. The participants were classified into 4 groups according to the compliance with regular check-up for 3 years. The group which showed poorer compliance with regular check-up occupied bigger proportion.
It is necessary to understand why and how infants make their first visit to dental clinic, which would be a groundwork to provide adequate clinical management and oral health education for the infants as well as their caregivers.
