”A dentist is undertaking a routine checkup on a ten year old boy. The boy suddenly starts crying violently and saying that he wants to go home. How appropriate is the following response by the dentist in this situation?

Response: Carry on with the checkup as normal.”

a) A very appropriate thing to do
b) Appropriate, but not ideal
c) Inappropriate, but not awful
d) A very inappropriate thing to do

-

Correct answer: D - A very inappropriate thing to do.

The dentist should always act in the patient’s best interest. Carrying on with an examination where the patient is clearly upset is poor practice, and will result in a child remembering the encounter as a traumatic one.
