A possible intervention is to enhance empathy in the child patient\u2013dental practitioner relationship through communication. The present paper presents a new instrument, the S<\/jats:styled-content>urvey of A<\/jats:styled-content>nxiety and I<\/jats:styled-content>nformation for D<\/jats:styled-content>entists (SAID<\/jats:styled-content>), which targets children's dental anxiety, coping preferences and dental neglect, and offers children a change to request information and engage in treatment planning.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Method<\/jats:title>Five children's focus groups pilot tested the content, wording and response format of a prototype patient request form, the SAID<\/jats:styled-content>. Participants were 34 10\u2010 to 13\u2010year\u2010old children who individually completed the form then discussed it item by item in their small groups.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Results<\/jats:title>Children had no difficulty completing most items. They identified ambiguities, and items that were meaningless to them, and proposed a new item asking the dentist about their job. Children were polarized over the response format, but they were emphatic about passing the form directly to the dentist, and not to a receptionist or assistant, stressing the importance of having a conversation with their dentist.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Conclusions<\/jats:title>Before the pilot, dentists had expressed concerns about the potential for words in the SAID<\/jats:styled-content>\u2010provoking negative feelings. Children, however, wanted and needed facts, so requested that dentists use plain language, not euphemisms, to describe problems and treatment options. We report their selected practical suggestions. SAID<\/jats:styled-content>\u2010informed negotiated care may promote more patient cooperation and satisfaction at appointments, and more attention to oral hygiene between appointments.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-2214.2012.01416.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,7,30]],"date-time":"2012-07-30T08:43:27Z","timestamp":1343637807000},"page":"869-872","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["The rationale and pilot study of a new paediatric dental patient request form to improve communication and outcomes of dental appointments"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"39","author":[{"given":"L.
