Fear And Anxiety

Dental fear and anxiety (DFA) serves as significant problem in child patient management as it leads to greater prevalence and increased severity of the disease associated with delayed dental visits. Therefore, it is necessary to effectively predict children dental behaviour and identify children at risk of Behaviour Management problems. Study of factors influencing DFA and its association with behaviour in children during first dental visit. The study included 209 children (5-14 years). DFA levels were assessed using 3 standardised questionnaires i.e. Facial Image Scale (FIS), Dental Anxiety Scale (DAS), Children’s Fear Survey Schedule – Dental Subscale (CFSS-DS). The behaviour of the child was then assessed using Frankl’s Behaviour Rating Scale (FBRS). The data were analysed, and a correlation was established between DFA and behaviour using statistical analysis. Presence of DFA according to FIS is 13.4%, according to DAS is 15.2% and according to CFSS-DS is 17.7%. Maximum participants showed positive behaviour (81.8%) according to FBRS. Factors causing maximum Dental anxiety according to DAS was anticipation of treatment (26.30%) and factor which caused maximum dental fear according to CFSS-DS was injections (45.4%). There is association between DFA and behaviour in children during first dental visit. This study will help assess the factors which lead to dental fear and anxiety in children and also find a correlation between dental fear and anxiety and behaviour management problems which can help the Paedodontist to predict various behaviour management problems and to avoid the factors which lead to them before the initiation of the dental treatment. This can lead to a decrease in the fear and anxiety levels of children which will further lead to better treatment and in turn better case management.

The Relationship

Introdução: A ansiedade odontológica interfere nos cuidados com a saúde bucal, causa resistência em ir ao consultório odontológico e dificulta o trabalho do cirurgião-dentista. Objetivo: determinar a prevalência de ansiedade relacionada ao tratamento odontológico em adolescentes, por meio de uma revisão da literatura. Material e método: Revisão da literatura, realizada através da busca ativa de informações na “Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde” (bvsalud.org) nas bases de dados MEDLINE e LILACS, totalizando a produção bibliográfica de um período de 25 anos. Foram adotados os seguintes descritores: "ansiedade ao tratamento odontológico" e "prevalência", de forma integrada. Foram incluídos estudos originais que avaliaram prevalência de ansiedade ao tratamento odontológico, conduzidos com indivíduos entre 10 e 19 anos de idade, com amostra representativa da população estudada. A busca foi limitada a publicações nos idiomas inglês, português ou espanhol; e do tipo artigo científico. A metodologia seguiu as recomendações PRISMA. Resultados: Foram identificados 7 artigos preenchendo os critérios de inclusão. A prevalência de ansiedade relacionada ao tratamento odontológico variou de 6,5 a 25,6% entre adolescentes, distribuídos entre Europa, Ásia e Oceania. Houve também diversidade de instrumentos utilizados para avaliação da ansiedade. Conclusão: A prevalência de ansiedade relacionada ao tratamento odontológico apresentou grande variabilidade entre as pesquisas analisadas, podendo chegar a ¼ dos adolescentes. Observou-se uma carência de estudos de prevalência consistentes nessa faixa etária.Descritores: Ansiedade ao Tratamento Odontológico; Prevalência; Adolescente.ReferênciasOliveira MLRS, Araújo SM, Bottan ER.

Objective. To determine a high fear cut-off point score for the Dental Fear Survey (DFS) using a single-item self-report questionnaire.Methods. The DFS, a 20-item questionnaire assessing fear of dental treatment, was completed by 1,256 participants with a mean age of 22.3 years (SD = 5.1). Another self-report questionnaire was used to collect data on previous dental experiences. A high fear cut-off point score was determined by calculating the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve for the DFS. Descriptive statistics and multinomial logistic regression were calculated; a significance level ofp<0.05was used for all tests.Results. The ROC curve indicated that a DFS score ≥53 corresponds to a sensitivity of 88.9% and a specificity of 92.5%. Most participants (n=895; 71.5%) reported no fear of going to the dentist. There was significant association between DFS score and fear assessed with the question “Are you fearful of going to the dentist?” (p<0.001).Conclusion. A cut-off point of 53 on the DFS total score represents the best compromise between sensitivity and specificity and can be used to predict high dental fear.
