Theory of Object Relations was given by, M. Mahler.
Margaret Schönberger Mahler (May 10, 1897 – October 2, 1985) was a Hungarian physician, who later became interested in psychiatry. She was a central figure on the world stage of psychoanalysis. Her main interest was in normal childhood development, but she spent much of her time with psychiatric children and how they arrive at the "self". Mahler developed the separation–individuation theory of child development.
She formulated the theory with Pine & Bergman on 1975.
➡️ Normal autistic phase – First few weeks of life. The infant is detached and self-absorbed. Spends most of his/her time sleeping.
➡️Normal symbiotic phase – Lasts until about 5 months of age. The child is now aware of his/her mother but there is not a sense of individuality. The infant and the mother are one, and there is a barrier between them and the rest of the world.
➡️Separation–individuation phase –
Separation refers to the development of limits, the differentiation between the infant and the mother, whereas individuation refers to the development of the infant's ego, sense of identity, and cognitive abilities.
Mahler explains how a child with the age of a few months breaks out of an "autistic shell" into the world with human connections. This process, labeled separation–individuation, is divided into subphases, each with its own onset, outcomes and risks. The following subphases proceed in this order but overlap considerably
Separation refers to the development of limits, the differentiation between the infant and the mother, whereas individuation refers to the development of the infant's ego, sense of identity, and cognitive abilities.

Psychoanalytic Theory by Sigmund Freud | Juhin JJuhin J
Psychoanalytic theory was formulated by Sigmund Freud, an Austrian Neurologist. He was the first to identify development by stages. He considered the first 5 years of a child’s life to be the most important, because he believed that an individual’s basic character had been formed by the age of 5.

Feeding plate for a newborn with Cleft Palate.pptxSatvikaPrasad
A feeding plate is a prosthetic device used for newborns with a cleft palate to assist in feeding and improve nutrition intake. From a prosthodontic perspective, this plate acts as a barrier between the oral and nasal cavities, facilitating effective sucking and swallowing by providing a more normal anatomical structure. It helps to prevent milk from entering the nasal passage, thereby reducing the risk of aspiration and enhancing the infant's ability to feed efficiently. The feeding plate also aids in the development of the oral muscles and can contribute to better growth and weight gain. Its custom fabrication and proper fitting by a prosthodontist are crucial for ensuring comfort and functionality, as well as for minimizing potential complications. Early intervention with a feeding plate can significantly improve the quality of life for both the infant and the parents.

THE ICEBERG - ID
A feeling or mood manifesting in motor or
glandular activity is called EMOTION.
An instinctual component of psych that drives
the emotional desires, impulses and immediate
satisfaction (Pleasure principle).
It is the most primitive and inaccessible part of
our personality.
Dr. Balraj Shukla
14. Title Lorem Ipsum
THE ICEBERG - ID
Id is activated by the Primary Process of Emotion/Thinking.
It is also known as hallucinatory gratification.
It is largely symbolic, illogical and does not last for a long time.

THE ICEBERG - SUPEREGO
Any change observed in the functioning of an
organism is called BEHAVIOUR.
Superego has 2 subparts:
• Conscience - moral and ethical component
of mind (Morality principle)
• Ego Ideal – What one ideally can be and how
one ought to behave
Develops around the age of 5 years.
Neutralizes the id to advocate socially
appropriate behaviour. Produces feelings of
shame and guilt.

16. Title Lorem Ipsum
THE ICEBERG - EGO
Assesses the reality of the external word and
acts upon accordingly (Reality Principle).

associated with memory, language, judgement,
intelligence and creativity.

17. Title Lorem Ipsum
THE ICEBERG - EGO
Ego is activated by the Secondary Process of Emotion/Thinking.
It helps in delaying gratification.

EXAMPLES
ID SUPEREGO EGO
A girl wants to buy an expensive
necklace
She cannot buy it as it is too expensive She can take permission from her
parents before buying
A man on diet is hungry while he is
driving his way back home
He cannot eat street food as it is not in
his diet plan
He can satisfy his hunger by waiting till
he gets home
A player is angry and wants to punch his
coach because he scolded him
It is not appropriate to punch your coach
else you might get suspended
The player can try to focus and meditate
and let go of the anger
A boy does not want to wake up when
the alarm goes off
He knows he might be late if he sleeps
too much
He presses the snooze button
Temperament comprises of two basic processes: Reactivity & Control.
The way a child reacts to a situation based on these two processes is
reflective of his or her id, ego and superego.
Dr. Balraj Shukla
20. Title Lorem Ipsum
EROGENOUS ZONES & FIXATION
Pleasure zones in the body that are stimulated in order to eliminate or reduce tension
are called erogenous zones. These are directly related to Id which demands immediate
gratification.
The failure to halt this gratification after a certain age results in Fixation. Fixation refers
to the theoretical notion that a portion of the individual's libido has been permanently
'invested' in a particular stage of his/her development.
Dr. Balraj Shukla
21. Title Lorem Ipsum
PSYCHOSEXUAL STAGES OF DEVELOPMENT
Oral Stage (0-1.5 years)
• Erogenous Zone: Mouth
• Gratifying activities: Nursing, eating, sucking, biting, swallowing
• Interaction with external environment: The mother’s breast
represents not only a source for food and drink but also
represents her love.
• Id is the only psych trait present at this stage. Both insufficient
feeding and forceful feeding can result in oral fixation.
• Fixation results in: Oral eroticism (sucking, eating, dependency,
cheerfulness)& Oral sadism (Nail biting, Smoking, Chewing,
Cruelty, Cynical)
The mouth is the erogenous zone
because at birth, reflexes like
rooting reflex, sucking,
swallowing, gag and crying are
present which are related to the
oral cavity.
Dr. Balraj Shukla
22. Title Lorem Ipsum
Anal Stage (1.5-3 years)
• Erogenous Zone: Anus
• Gratifying activities: Bowel movement and its
control
• Interaction with external environment: Toilet
training
• Anal-expulsive personality: Sloppy,
disorganized, reckless, careless.
• Anal-retentive personality: Clean, orderly and
intolerant to those who are not clean.
The erogenous zone is anus as there is an increase
in voluntary activity over the sphincters,
particularly the anal sphincter. A control over the
anal sphincter can also improve neuromuscular
control and help the child understand the
importance of hygiene.
Dr. Balraj Shukla
23. Title Lorem Ipsum
Urethral Stage (3-4 years)
• Erogenous Zone: Transitional stage (anal &
phallic)
• Gratifying activities: Urination
• Interaction with external environment: Toilet
training
• Poor urethral control: Competitiveness &
Ambition
• Urethral competence: Self-competence &
sense of pride
The presence of urethral erotism as this age leads
to urination being a gratifying activity. This stage
also helps the child in realizing the importance of
discipline.
Dr. Balraj Shukla
24. Title Lorem Ipsum
Phallic Stage (4-5 years)
• Erogenous Zone: Genitals
• Gratifying activities: Genital fondling
• Interaction with external environment:
Attraction to parent of opposite gender
(Oedipus Complex and Electra Complex)
• Beginning of formation of superego.
• Men: Anxiety and Guilt, interest in one’s own
features
• Women: No possible fixations result from this
stage but women will always carry a sense of
envy and inferiority.
In this stage a child has unusual fantasies of the
opposite sex without any embarrassment. The
child gets more attracted to the parent of the
opposite gender. Parents of the opposite
gender are likely to teach maintenance of
proper oral hygiene to their child in this stage.
Dr. Balraj Shukla
25. Title Lorem Ipsum
Latency (5 years - puberty)
• Interaction with external environment:
Suppression of sexual feelings, acquiring
new life skills, adjusting to social
environment, developing same sex
friendships, sports etc.
• Better control over ego
• Fixation: Sexual repression and
sublimation
Various hormonal changes and life experiences
affect the body in general during this stage
and hence there is no particular erogenous
zone.
Dr. Balraj Shukla
26. Title Lorem Ipsum
Genital Stage (Puberty Onwards)
• Erogenous Zone: Genitals
• Gratifying activities: Heterosexual relationships
• Interaction with external environment: memories
of the past, physical manipulation of erogenous
zones and hormonal secretions.
• If there is any fixation in this stage, it is largely due
to difficulties experienced in previous stages.
A person develops the sense of
identity and realizes the
importance of reproduction and
survival.

PSYCHOANALYSIS & DENTAL TREATMENT
Source: Freeman R; A fearful child attends: a psychoanalytic explanation of children’s responses to
dental treatment; Int J Ped Dent; 2007
Dr. Balraj Shukla
30. Title Lorem Ipsum
CONCLUSION
A dynamic psychology studies the transformations and exchanges of energy
within the personality. Subsequently, it attempts to explain or interpret
behaviour or mental states in terms of innate emotional forces or processes.
Psychoanalysis is a controversial topic whose scientific basis is often
challenged. In children, the application of Freud’s theory that is based on
sexual drives has often been frowned upon and led to the “Freud Wars.”
Even though it is not empirical and unfalsifiable, Freud’s psychoanalysis
remains a crucial part of psychiatry.
