Dental experts are trusted to apply the knowledge and abilities they have acquired during their dental education to the diagnosis and effective treatment of any dental illness. When it comes to pediatric patients, however, the dentist's responsibility is different. However, without the right behavior management method (BMT), therapy outcomes would not be effective. Sometimes young children behave disruptively during dental visits, which makes it easier or harder for the dentist to perform dental work. Nonetheless, before being applied to children, behavior management strategies need the parents' acceptance and consent. This review's objective is to evaluate the dentists' use of effective behavior modification techniques (BMT) as well as the parents' attitudes regarding these techniques.
