    Abstract Background: The COVID-19 pandemic interrupted routine and preventive dental services until precautions could be implemented to limit virus transmission. Access to services for dental emergencies was maintained. The objective of this study was to describe the reported need for, access to, and receipt of oral health care in Canada during the first year of the pandemic.
    Data and methods: The 2021 Survey on Access to Health Care and Pharmaceuticals During the Pandemic collected information from Canadians aged 18 years and older. Respondents were asked whether they needed (routine) dental care in the previous 12 months, whether they received that care, whether they experienced any mouth or tooth pain (indicative of a dental emergency), and whether and how COVID-19 affected service access.
    Results: Of the 44.5% of Canadians who reported needing dental care in the 12 months before the survey, 5.8% did not receive the care they reportedly needed. Almost 20% of those with a reported need had their appointment cancelled, rescheduled, or delayed because of COVID-19, and this was more common for individuals with unmet dental care needs (46.9%) than it was for those who had received dental care (17.1%). For those requiring more urgent care, 23.3% of Canadians experienced pain in their mouth or teeth in the previous 12 months. Among those with dental pain, 64.2% sought treatment, and the majority (86.4%) received the treatment they needed. One-third (33.2%) avoided care for their dental-related pain because of fear of contracting COVID-19.
    Interpretation: During the first year of the pandemic, many Canadians experienced cancelled or delayed dental services or did not receive the oral health care services they reportedly needed. Ongoing monitoring could help determine whether these COVID-19 service interruptions will have lasting effects on Canadians' oral health.

    Abstract Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has been associated with declines in children's oral health and oral health care use in 2020. The authors examined the pandemic effects on these outcomes into 2021.
    Methods: This cross-sectional study used data from the National Survey of Children's Health from 2017 through 2021. The authors compared parent's or caregiver's perceptions of the child's oral health and reported dental problems and dental visits across years, adjusting for child and household covariates and state of residence. The authors evaluated potential heterogeneity across demographic and socioeconomic subgroups.
    Results: In 2021, parents and caregivers were still more likely to perceive children's oral health as poor (odds ratio [OR], 1.90; 95% CI, 1.28 to 2.82) and less likely to report very good or excellent oral health (OR, 0.83; 95% CI, 0.76 to 0.92) than in 2019, similar to differences between 2020 and 2019. Dental visits were also less likely in 2021 than 2019 (OR, 0.74; 95% CI, 0.66 to 0.83). These differences between 2021 and 2019 were not explained by prepandemic trends and were observed across a range of demographic and socioeconomic subgroups.
    Conclusions: Children's oral health as perceived by parents and caregivers and oral health care use were still worse in 2021 than before the pandemic both overall and across demographic and socioeconomic subgroups.
    Practical implications: The persistent adverse effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on children's oral health as perceived by parents and caregivers and shown through dental visits highlight the need to improve oral health care access and use and to evaluate the long-term effects of the pandemic on children's oral health.

    Abstract Background: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has brought about radical changes in our habits and lifestyles. The suspension of schools has led children to spend long hours at home, with reduced socialization, and changes in dietary patterns, oral hygiene practices and sleep routines. During a pandemic, appropriate oral health management and disease prevention are very important for the child's oral and general health.
    Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess the attitudes and practices of parents with regard to their children's oral healthcare, dietary habits and dental care during the COVID-19 pandemic.
    Material and methods: This cross-sectional study included 381 Indian parents of children aged 4-7 years. A self-instructed questionnaire was designed in English using the Google Forms platform. The questionnaire consisted of 4 parts: sociodemographic data; dietary habits of the child; oral hygiene measures; and dental information. The collected data was analyzed using descriptive and analytical statistics (the χ2 test).
    Results: Among the children included in the study, 48% of those who experienced dental problems during the pandemic consumed more snacks and packaged foods between meals. Among the parents, 80% reported that their children used electronic devices at mealtimes, and 60% reported the food pouching habit in their children. A total of 71% of parents assisted their child at tooth brushing, while only 28% of the parents would take their child to the dental clinic for treatment.
    Conclusions: This study highlights the shortfalls in attitudes and practices among parents in relation to dietary habits, oral hygiene measures and the use of dental services during the COVID-19 pandemic regarding their children. This could be attributed to a lack of awareness, the fear of exposure and the inconveniences faced by parents.

    Abstract Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted global health and presented challenges to maintaining oral health in children. Efficient management and prevention of oral diseases are therefore crucial in this population.
    Aim: This cross-sectional study aimed to assess parents' self-reported oral and dental hygiene habits for their children during the COVID-19 pandemic.
    Methods: A total of 256 parents of primary school children in Qazvin completed an online questionnaire containing demographic, general, and cardinal questions. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS 22 software, and accurate analytical tests were run to reach the results.
    Results: The study found that 69.1% of parents and 87.1% of children brushed their teeth regularly during the pandemic. Additionally, 80.5% of parents monitored their children while brushing. While some parents expressed concerns about COVID-19 infection, parents from lower socioeconomic status reported a higher willingness to attend dental centers than those from more prosperous areas.
    Conclusion: These findings suggest that parents' supervision and attitude toward oral health care significantly affect children's oral hygiene habits during the pandemic, possibly due to increased time spent together during lockdowns.

    Title translation Accès aux soins dentaires pendant la pandémie de Covid-19 en France : l’enquête COVISTRESS-santé orale
    Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic led to an interruption in dental-care services during the initial lockdown period. This study assesses the impact of this period on the perception of oral health and accessibility to dental care in France. A questionnaire survey was carried out (COVISTRESS.ORG) to study the stress and health behaviors of adults before, during, and after the first lockdown, i.e., at the time of the response. An “oral health” questionnaire assessed changes in the perceived difficulties for accessing dental care. Between November 2020 and April 2021, 339 adults completed the “oral health” section. The perceived-difficulty-in-accessing-dental-care score (on a scale of 0 to 100) was 21.6 ± 26.7 before the pandemic, 52.9± 39.5 during lockdown, and 38.1± 35.3 after it. Before the pandemic, this score was linked to an unfavorable perception of oral health and to difficulties in accessing health care. During lockdown, the score was associated with high dental care needs (RR=4.1; CI95%=1.2–13.8), and perceived difficulties in accessing the health care system (5.06; 1.8–14.1), particularly transport difficulties (3.0; 1.1–9.1). The factors explaining the change in difficulties from before to after the lockdown differ according to when the assessment was done. This study demonstrates the negative impact of the pandemic on perceived difficulties for accessing dental care, within a population with few socially disadvantaged people.
