Abstract

Dental korku; dental işlemler sırasında ortaya çıkan ve bir takım korkutucu uyaranlara karşı oluşan normal emosyonel bir reaksiyondur. Dental kaygı ise; diş tedavisi sırasında korkunç olaylar gerçekleşeceği konusunda duyulan endişe ve buna bağlı olarak kontrolün yitirilmesi hissi olarak tanımlanır. Çocuklarda “dental korku, kaygı ve davranış idaresi problemlerinin” görülme sıklığı, yaklaşık % 5-20 arasında değişmektedir. Davranış idaresi problemlerinin prevalansı; yaşça küçük olan çocuklarda, dental korkuya sahip olan çocuklarda ve çocuk ağrı hissettiğinde daha yüksektir. Diş hekimi ve yardımcı personelin varlığı da çocuğun stres, ağrı ve rahatsızlık duygularına verdiği tepkileri etkilemektedir. Bu makalede, çocuklarda dental kaygı ve davranış idaresi problemlerinin etyolojik faktörlerinden ve farklı toplumlarda görülme sıklığından bahsedilmektedir.

PREVALENCE AND ETIOLOGIC FACTORS OF “DENTAL ANXIETY AND BEHAVIORAL MANAGEMENT PROBLEMS” IN PEDIATRIC PATIENTS

Abstract

Dental fear occurs as a normal emotional reaction owing to some threatening provocateurs during dental procedures. Dental anxiety is a state of apprehension relating to some ideas about “dreadful things are going to happen during the dental treatment” and sense of losing control. The prevalence of “dental fear, anxiety and behavioral management problems” in children is between 5-20 %. The prevalence of behavioral management problems is higher in younger children and children with dental fear and when the child feels pain. Also, dentist and dental personnel’s behaviors effect how children give reaction when they are under stress, feel pain and uncomfortable. This article is about prevalence and etiologic factors of dental anxiety and behavioral management problems in children in different populations.
