Abstract

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has introduced new impediments to delivering and accessing dental care. In light of the COVID-19 pandemic experience, research into anticipatory measures for pediatric dental care is necessary to prepare for future pandemics or other public health events. This study sought to explore factors influencing mothers’ anxiety over taking their children to the dentist during the COVID-19 pandemic. We conducted an explorative qualitative study with social cognitive theory (SCT) as its theoretical framework. In-depth interviews with mothers of children aged 6–12 years in five areas in Surabaya were selected as the method for answering the qualitative inquiries. To improve transparency, we employed a 32-item consolidated criteria for reporting qualitative research (COREQ) checklist. Thematic data analysis revealed three primary cross-cutting themes: internal (personal) factors, external (socio-environmental) factors, and interaction between internal factors and external factors. Based on the interviews, five internal factor sub-themes impacting maternal anxiety over child dental treatment emerged: knowledge, self-efficacy, risk perception, trust in a dentist, and experiences with a child’s dental visit. Moreover, three external factor sub-themes were noted: public transportation, bulk COVID-19 information, and costs. Findings revealed that internal and external factors interacted with each other and influenced maternal anxiety over pediatric dental care during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study benefits public health by contributing to the development of strategies and policies for dental health services under unforeseen health crises.

Methods: This study used qualitative research methods, and information retrieval using in-depth interviews with research samples, who were pregnant women at Pakis public health service area on September 14-30, 2020. Results: There are main findings found such as, there are still pregnant women who do not know how to maintain oral health during pregnancy, pregnant women still do not try to find out information related to oral health during pregnancy, and it was also found that the information provided at services related to oral health during pregnancy was felt to be lacking by some informants. Conclusion: In terms of knowledge and attitudes (predisposing factors), as well as access to services (enabling factors), informants did not experience any obstacles. In terms of support (reinforcing factors), most informants highlighted the importance of support from husbands, family, relatives, and friends for the oral health of pregnant women.
