The clinical and radiographic evaluation revealed an unerupted odontoma, an impacted maxillary left deciduous supernumerary canine, an impacted maxillary left permanent canine, and the bilateral absence of mandibular lateral incisors. The findings led to the diagnosis of a non-syndromic case of concomitant hypohyperdontia. Only a small number of cases of hypo-hyperdontia have agenesis of mandibular lateral incisors and odontomas, but none have deciduous supernumerary canines. The authors thus bring a new combination of hypohyperdontia cases. This case report also discusses the treatment options of hypo-hyperdontia and the consequences of delaying treatment.","PeriodicalId":332603,"journal":{"name":"Journal of updates in Pediatric Dentistry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123966595","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The program targets the DMF-T of 12-year-old children to be reduced to below 1.26 by 2030. Therefore, it is necessary to design a dental health education program to increase people's motivation to adopt dental health behavior. Motivation is focused because it is an essential factor that supports a person in making decisions and behaving. Aim: This study evaluates the pilot training for trainers using the motivational interviewing method to change dental health behavior. Method: This program is designed using training for trainer methods with prepared participants to educate the community in their area. Participants are trained by a motivational interviewing coach and practice the motivational interviewing skills with a simulated client. This thirty-hour training includes a four-phase structure; lectures, case handling, practicum, and trials. The evaluation is carried out through three out of four-level evaluation methods from Kirkpatrick. Result: Thirty women were recruited for this training. The women are cadres in integrated health service posts. Evaluation of this training revealed that reaction, learning, and behavior level show a good outcome. Conclusion: Despite the limitation of participants' stiffness during skill practice, the trial run of this training program succeeded in producing thirty cadres ready to implement the program in the community.","PeriodicalId":332603,"journal":{"name":"Journal of updates in Pediatric Dentistry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133639934","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Varnish application was made, and the plaque pH and salivary fluoride ion release were determined at 24 hours, 3 months’ and 6 months’ post varnish application.
