Aim: To compare the effect of the traditional white coat or green scrubs on preoperative dental anxiety.
Material and Methods: Among 411 adult patients who applied for tooth extraction, 60 patients were included (27 males, 33 females, age between 18 and 65, mean age 42 ± 12.27). They were randomly divided into two groups. The physician wore a traditional long sleeved white coat in the first group (group 1, n=30), and a long sleeved green scrubs in the second group (group 2, n=30). After the medical history was taken and before the clinical examination, anxiety level of the patient was measured with a visual analog scale and recorded as “1. measurement”. After the local anesthesia was done, we waited for 5 minutes and the anxiety level was measured again and recorded as “2. measurement”. The compliance of the data to the normal distribution was examined by Shapiro-Wilk test, and t test was used for intergroup comparison and paired t test was employed for intragroup comparisons.
Results: The initial anxiety levels of the patients in Group 1 were significantly higher than that of Group 2 (p <.05). In both groups, the anxiety level significantly decreased in the second measurement (p <.05). On the other hand, in the second measurements, there was no significant difference between the groups (p> .05).
Conclusion: A traditional white coat causes more anxiety than green scrubs in adult patients. This issue should be taken into consideration in patients with severe anxiety.

Amaç: Hekimin geleneksel beyaz önlük veya ameliyathane önlüğü giymesinin preoperatif dental anksiyete üzerine etkisinin karşılaştırılması.
Gereç ve Yöntemler: Diş çekimi için başvuran 411 yetişkin hastadan, 60 hasta çalışmaya dahil edildi (27 erkek ve 33 kadın; yaş aralığı 18-65, ortalama yaş 42 ± 12.27). Hastalar rastgele iki gruba ayrıldı. Hekim bir grupta tüm çalışma boyunca uzun kollu beyaz önlük (grup 1, n=30) diğer grupta ise uzun kollu yeşil ameliyathane önlüğü giydi (grup 2, n=30). Anamnez alındıktan sonra ve muayeneden önce, her iki grupta da kaygı seviyesi görsel analog skala ile ölçüldü ve “1. ölçüm” olarak kaydedildi. Lokal anestezi yapıldıktan sonra 5 dk beklendi, anksiyete seviyesi tekrar ölçüldü ve “2. ölçüm” olarak kaydedildi. Verilerin normal dağılıma uyumuna Shapiro-Wilk testi ile bakıldı ve gruplar arası karşılaştırma için t testi, grup içi karşılaştırmalar için eşleştirilmiş t testi yapıldı. İstatistiksel önem seviyesi p < .05 olarak belirlendi.
Bulgular: Grup 1’deki hastaların ilk anksiyete seviyeleri Grup 2’den önemli miktarda daha fazlaydı (p<.05). Her iki grupta da ikinci ölçümde anksiyete seviyesinin anlamlı derecede azaldığı gözlendi (p<.05). Öte yandan anksiyete seviyesinin ikinci ölçümlerinde ise gruplar arasında fark kalmamıştı (p>.05).
Sonuç: Yetişkin hastalarda beyaz önlük yeşil ameliyathane kıyafetine göre daha fazla anksiyeteye yol açmaktadır. Aşırı anksiyeteli hastalarda bu husus göz önünde bulundurulmalıdır.
