Abstract:Objective To explore effect of tongue muscle functional training combined with psychological counseling on self-efficacy of children undergoing early treatment for malocclusion.Methods A total of 136 cases with malocclusion who were admitted to the Department of Pediatric Dentistry, Dalian Stomatological Hospital from August 2018 to December 2019 were selected.They were divided into an observation group (68 cases) and a control group (68 cases) according to the random number table method.Both groups were given psychological counseling during early treatment,and the observation group was additionally given 8 weeks of tongue muscle functional training.Correction effects of the two groups were evaluated, and the anterior teeth coverage depth, upper incisor inclination, lower anterior teeth inclination, self-efficacy changes and nursing satisfaction were recorded before and after treatment.Results The total effective rate of the observation group was higher than that of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Before intervention, there were no statistically significant differences in anterior teeth coverage depth, upper incisor inclination and lower anterior teeth inclination between the two groups (P>0.05).After intervention, the anterior tooth coverage and upper incisor inclination of both groups were smaller than those before intervention, while the lower anterior teeth inclination was larger than that before intervention, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05).After intervention, the anterior tooth coverage and upper incisor inclination in the observation group was lower than that in the control group, and the lower anterior teeth inclination was higher than that in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05).Before intervention, there was no significant difference in self-efficacy score between the two groups (P<0.05).After intervention, the self-efficacy scores of the two groups were higher than those before intervention, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).After intervention, that self-efficacy score of the observation group was higher than that of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).The total satisfaction degree of nursing care in the observation group was higher than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).Conclusion Applying tongue muscle functional training in psychological nursing of patients undergoing early treatment for malocclusion can improve the anterior teeth coverage depth, upper incisor inclination and lower anterior teeth inclination as well as the patient′s self-efficacy.It can also promote the development of harmonious nurse-patient relationship.
