We sometimes jump on the bandwagon because something sounds good but may be of dubious scientific backing. In this presentation\, we’ll look at commonly held but not scientifically based myths in kid’s dentistry that have been perpetuated by dentists and the “Lay” media for years (including many old wives’ tales). We’ll look at the difference between common sense\, science\, and factless fantasy. \n\n\n\nLearning Objectives: \n\n\n\n\nLearn how to read and evaluate literature and critically assess what we have been taught\n\n\n\nIncorporate valid science into our treatment planning and procedures\n\n\n\nDoes teething exist?\n\n\n\nFrenectomy\, Frenotomy\, Frenuloplasty – what does it mean?\n\n\n\nBruxing and grinding? He must be stressed\n\n\n\nDo we really have to block him?
