Attendance pattern of anxiety-treated dental patients: a pilot study.

Ex-patients of a dental fear clinic were found to have significantly reduced, yet still high, dental anxiety scores in comparison with the pre-intervention scores. In spite of the intervention about one quarter of the ex-patients did not visit a dentist regularly. A positive relationship was found between dental anxiety, measured with Corah's DAS, and "dislike of drilling". A short duration of (self-reported) psychophysiologic anxiety reactions appeared to be associated with the intention to ask for treatment, e.g. if a cavity were present. However, regular dental attendance was not correlated with dental anxiety scores.
