| Core Tip |
Age, gender, and prior dental experiences remain important factors shaping children’s preferences for a dentist’s appearance. As children mature, their fear of the white coat tends to diminish, and preferences for a specific dentist gender or child-friendly mask types also decrease. Nonetheless, it is important to recognize that beyond appearance, qualities such as communication skills, behavior, and the dentist’s attitude have a greater influence on the child-dentist relationship. |
