Mrs. Nandini M, Dr. C. Jayan

Abstract :

 

Visiting the dentist can be stressful for adolescents due to higher number of unexpected stimuli or the memory of earlier uncomfortable or even painful dental or medical treatment. This is particularly more in individuals with oral facial clefts. In order to address these questions a descriptive design was undertaken to assess the level of anxiety during dental procedures. Samples of 86 adolescents were selected through simple random technique. Dental concern assessment tool reveals the dental anxiety was exhibited equally among early, middle and late adolescents.
