The patients were divided into the research group (55 patients), who underwent suture micromarsupialisation, and control group (51 patients), who underwent ranula resections. The therapeutic methods were compared regarding cure rate, surgical duration, intraoperative blood loss, 24-h postoperative pain score, intraoperative and postoperative complications, and recurrence rate.  Results: The difference in the total effective rate between the two groups was not statistically significant (98.18% vs. 96.08%, χ2 = 2.116, p = 0.347).

The instrument Early Childhood Oral Health Impact Scale (ECOHIS) measures the oral health-related quality of life in preschool children (Child Impact Section) and their families (Family Impact Section). The aims of the study were to develop a Swedish version of ECOHIS and to evaluate the instrument's reliability, validity, and internal consistency. Additionally, to analyse the oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) among preschool children who have experienced caries.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>The original ECOHIS questionnaire was translated into Swedish. Caregivers of preschool children aged 2-5 years were recruited at dental clinics in Sweden, to participate in the study and answer the Swedish version of the ECOHIS (S-ECOHIS).

In order to measure the consistency of the study, the questionnaire was re-tested two weeks later for 10 of the caregivers and assessed by using intra-class correlation coefficients (ICCs).
