“…The use of a DAS score of 13+ to define high dental anxiety has been used previously (Corah et al, 1978;Locker and Liddell, 1991), as have 12+ and 17+ (Schwarz and Birn, 1995). To confirm the observed pattern, and to ensure that this study's outcome was not somehow an artifact resulting from the cut-off point which had been chosen, we repeated the bivariate analysis using a DAS score of 17+ to define high dental anxiety.…”

Five pathways related to dental fear have been recognized: conditioning, parental, informative, verbal threat, and visual vicarious.…”

“…En Oceanía y Estados Unidos, la prevalencia de ansiedad dental oscila entre los 12,5 % y 16,1 % (Armfield et al, 2006;Locker et al, 2001;Thomson et al, 1996), mientras que en Asia las tasas van del 30 % al 50,2 % (Marya et al, 2012;Schwarz & Birn, 1995). A nivel latinoamericano, solo en Brasil existen estudios que reportan datos de ansiedad dental y cuyas frecuencias están cercanas al 20 % (de Carvalho et al, 2012;do Nascimento et al, 2011).…”
