“…are involved in its development (1)(2)(3). Studies have shown that dental anxiety can cause decayed-missing-filled teeth index (DMFT) increase, restrict the provision of oral health care services, increase in emergency dental referrals, jeopardize dentist-patient relationship, decrease oral health quality of life, and psychosocial health (1,3). All these cases lead to a defective cycle that ultimately creates more anxiety in the patient (4).…”

“…(13,21) It is expected that the anxiety level of an individual who had undergone dental surgery before would decrease in the subsequent procedures. 9 Positive dental procedure experiences will decrease anxiety, while negative experiences will increase anxiety. Informing the patients about the treatment process can trigger additional stress development in individuals.…”

Oral surgical procedures cause high-pain expectation and consequent anxiety in patients. The aim of this study is to compare the effects of Er, Cr: YSGG laser and scalpel method on dental anxiety level during second-stage implant surgery. 96 patients with 304 osseointegrated implants were divided into two groups. Implants embedded under the oral mucosa were exposed with scalpel or laser surgery. Before the operation the patients were asked to fill the STAI and DAS while resting in the waiting room. In addition, postoperative daily analgesic use, VAS scores perioperativly and on the postoperative 1 st , 2 nd and 3 rd days and demographic information such as age and gender were also recorded. There was no statistically significant relationship between surgical m ethod and anxiety levels (p>0.05. Also, the differences between the scalpel and laser groups in terms of total DAS and STAI scores were statistically insignificant (p>0.05). But statistically significant difference was found between surgical method and the analgesic consumption (p<0.05). A higher rate of analgesic consumption was observed in the scalpel group. The use of Er,Cr;YSGG laser could reduce pain during minor oral surgical procedures but had no significant effect on dental anxiety. Different modalities that could provide additional benefits in overcoming this situation should be investigated.

“…Eğitim durumu anksiyeteyi etkileyebilen bir diğer önemli faktördür. Bazı araştırmaların sonuçlarına göre dental anksiyete, düşük sosyal sınıflarda, eğitim ve gelir düzeyi düşük olan gruplarda daha yaygındır (2,28). Ragnarsson, yüksek eğitim seviyesine sahip hastaların daha düşük anksiyete skorları gösterdiğini bildirmiştir (29).…”
