BACKGROUND AND AIM
Dental anxiety is primarily associated with learning negative behaviour which may be attributed to the aggressive condition process during childhood and adolescence and is considered to be the main reason for avoiding dental care. Hence the present study aimed to assess the correlation of Dental Anxiety with Oral Health Status and Treatment Needs.
METHODS
Cross sectional study was carried out among 12-year old school going children of Hyderabad City, India. Dental anxiety was assessed using the Modified Child Dental Anxiety Scale (MCDAS). Oral Health Status and Treatment Needs were assessed using Gingival Index and Dentition status and treatment needs based on Basic Oral Health Survey. Multi-group analysis was done using Analysis of Variance. p<0.05 was considered statistically significant.
RESULTS
In the present study, females had higher significant total mean MCDAS score as compared to males (22.8±5.4 vs.19.66±6.0) (p=0.00001*). Study participants with no history of previous dental visits (21.55±5.6) showed a statistically higher significant total MCDAS score compared to their counterpart (p=0.006*). On the other hand, Decayed component (r=0.1335*) and overall DMFT (r=0.1384*) had a significant positive correlation with MCDAS score.
CONCLUSION
The study concluded that there is a correlation between dental anxiety and dentition status and treatment needs among 12 year old children.
背景与目的
牙齿焦虑主要与学习负面行为有关，这种负面行为可能归因于儿童期和青春期的激进治疗过程，并且被认为是避免牙科护理的主要原因。因此，本研究旨在评估牙齿焦虑与口腔健康状况和治疗需求的相关性。
方法
在印度海得拉巴市，对 12 岁的在校儿童进行了横断面研究。使用改良儿童牙科焦虑量表（MCDAS）评估牙齿焦虑。使用牙龈指数和牙齿状况以及基于基本口腔健康调查的牙齿治疗需求评估口腔健康状况和治疗需求。使用方差分析进行多组分析。p<0.05 被认为具有统计学意义。
结果
在本研究中，女性的 MCDAS 总分明显高于男性（22.8±5.4 与 19.66±6.0）（p=0.00001*）。与有过牙科就诊史的研究参与者（21.55±5.6）相比，没有牙科就诊史的研究参与者的 MCDAS 总分明显更高（p=0.006*）。另一方面，龋齿成分（r=0.1335*）和总体 DMFT（r=0.1384*）与 MCDAS 评分呈显著正相关。
结论
研究表明，12 岁儿童的牙齿焦虑与牙齿状况和治疗需求之间存在相关性。
