Currently, many studies indicate that communicative techniques, compared to physical immobilization techniques, are more accepted by parents. However, there are few studies in the country regarding physical immobilization and the level of acceptance by parents. Therefore, the objective of this study was to determine the level of acceptance by parents or guardians regarding the behavior management of children aged 0 to 8 years using immobilization techniques in the district of Pinra, Huacaybamba province, Huánuco, 2014. The data collected was processed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 20 for Windows 2010. The results indicate that parents are mainly in favor of active immobilization (83.3%), compared to passive immobilization (31.3%) and conscious sedation (46.0%), showing that the level of acceptance of dental behavior management techniques using immobilization differs significantly. It was concluded that the level of acceptance of the three physical immobilization techniques was independent of factors such as the parent's age, prior experience, education level, and the child's age, with the exception of the parent's gender, where a statistically significant relationship was found. It was noted that 60% of male parents disagreed with passive immobilization.
