OBJECTIVES
The aims of this cross-sectional study were to evaluate the level of fear of dental procedures among schoolchildren and assess the relationship between caries experience and fear of dental procedures.
SUBJECTS AND METHODS
275 children aged 7-11 years were recruited for the study. Before conducting a dental examination, each subject was asked to independently complete a Children's Fear Survey Schedule - Dental Subscale (CFSS-DS) questionnaire. Children having a score of > or =38 were included in the group 'with dental fear' while those scoring <38 were placed in the 'without dental fear' group. All dental examinations were performed on the school premises according to WHO criteria.
RESULTS
Mean CFSS-DS value was 28.1, and the number of children who experienced dental fear was 40 (14.5%). It was found that Decayed, Missing and Filled Surface Index (DMFS-dfs) increased significantly with increasing CFSS-DS values. Fear scores were highest for 'Choking' (3.3), 'Injections' (2.6) and 'Having somebody put instruments in their mouth' (2.6). No significant differences in fear scores between boys and girls were found in this study.
CONCLUSIONS
The data showed prevalence of dental fear in the 7-11-year-old children of this study. Dental fear scores decreased with increasing age.
目的
本横断面研究旨在评估学龄儿童对牙科操作的恐惧程度，并评估龋齿经历与对牙科操作的恐惧之间的关系。
受试者和方法
本研究招募了 275 名 7-11 岁的儿童。在进行牙科检查之前，每位受试者都被要求独立完成儿童恐惧调查量表-牙科分量表（CFSS-DS）问卷。得分>或=38 的儿童被纳入“有牙科恐惧”组，而得分<38 的儿童被纳入“无牙科恐惧”组。所有的牙科检查都是根据世界卫生组织的标准在学校进行的。
结果
CFSS-DS 的平均值为 28.1，有 40 名（14.5%）儿童经历过牙科恐惧。发现龋齿、缺失和补牙指数（DMFS-dfs）随着 CFSS-DS 值的增加而显著增加。“窒息”（3.3）、“注射”（2.6）和“有人将器械放入口腔”（2.6）的恐惧得分最高。在这项研究中，男孩和女孩之间的恐惧得分没有显著差异。
结论
数据显示，该研究中 7-11 岁儿童存在牙科恐惧的流行率。牙科恐惧评分随年龄增长而降低。
