Bu araştırmada diş hekimliği fakültesine başvuran hastaların COVID-19 pandemisi ile ilgili farkındalık ve endişelerinin değerlendirilmesi ve pandemi döneminde diş tedavisi ile ilgili düşünce ve endişelerinin belirlenmesi amaçlandı. Anket; kişisel demografik veriler, COVID-19 hastalığı ile ilgili endişe, farkındalık, ve bilgi düzeyleri ile ilgili sorular içermekte ve ayrıca ağız ve diş sağlığı hizmetlerine olan ihtiyaçlarını ve bu ihtiyaçların ne ölçüde karşılandığını sorgulamaktadır. Bu kesitsel anket 517 hasta ile yapılmıştır. Hastaların %44.9'u hem COVID-19 semptomlarını hem de COVID-19'dan korunma yöntemlerini biliyordu. Bilgi düzeyi; kadınlarda (64.7%) erkeklere (35.3%) göre, üniversite mezunlarında (57.3%) da ortaokul ve lise mezunlarına göre daha yüksekti. Koronavirüse yakalanmaktan endişeli olanlar endişeli olmayanlara göre diş tedavisine gelme konusunda daha çok oranda tereddüt yaşamaktaydı (p<0.05). Hastaların çoğunluğu sağlık kuruluşunun koronavirüs bulaşmasını önleyebileceğine inanıyordu ve % 80,5'i bekleme salonundaki diğer hastalardan enfekte olabileceğini düşünüyordu. Bu çalışma bize güvenli ağız diş sağlığı hizmetlerine erişim konusunda ve hastaların bilinci ve endişesi konusunda önemli bilgiler vermektedir.

In this research, it was aimed to evaluate the awareness and concerns of patients applying to the faculty of dentistry about the COVID-19 pandemic and to determine their thoughts and concerns about dental treatment during the pandemic period. The questionnaire included questions about personal demographic characteristics, concern, awareness and knowledge level related to COVID-19 disease, and also questioned their need for oral and dental health services and to what extent these needs were met. This cross-sectional survey was conducted on 517 patients. Of the patients, 44.9% knew both the symptoms of COVID-19 and prevention methods of COVID-19. The level of knowledge was higher in; females (64.7%) than males (35.3%), university graduates (57.3%) than middle and high school graduates. Those who were concerned about getting coronavirus had a significantly higher rate of hesitation about coming to dental treatment during this period compared to those who were not concerned (p<0.05). The majority of patients believed that the healthcare facility could prevent coronavirus transmission and 80.5% thought they could be infected from other patients in the waiting room. This study provides us important information about access to safe oral dental health services and the awareness and concern of dental patients.
