Dental Anxiety in Children and Salivary Cortisol Levels
Dental Anxiety

About this trial
This is an interventional health services research trial for Dental Anxiety focused on measuring dental anxiety, cortisol, procedure
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- They were apparently healthy and had no previous experience of dental treatment
- In terms of the standardization of the groups, only the children who were compatible with Frankl-3 or 4 classes were included in the study.
- The patients were divided into groups taking into consideration the requirements of having no pain, abscess, fistula and no need for dental treatment requiring urgent intervention.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Patients, who did not meet the inclusion criteria for the study, who did not want to participate voluntarily, who ate and drank something 1 hour before the appointment, who used medication in the last 7 days, who used medication that may affect the salivary flow in the last 60 days or who left the dental treatment incomplete, were not included in the study.
- Children with Farnkl-1 and -2 classes had negative compliance to treatment and therefore they were not included in the study.

Fissure Sealant group
It's one of the restorative groups with LA (Local Anesthesia). An aerator and micromotor were used as cavity preparation in this group. Only conventional root canal treatment and extirpation were planned for the children included in the root canal treatment group in the measurement session.

It's one of the restorative groups with LA (Local Anesthesia).An aerator and micromotor were used as cavity preparation in this group. A Tofflemire matrix retainer and 0.05 mm thick matrix band (Hahnenkratt, Königsbach-Stein, Germany) were used in groups with a two-surface cavity.

It's one of the protective groups.Only the micromotor was used for polishing purposes in the protective treatment groups. 2% NaF (Polimo® IMICRYL, Konya, Turkey) was preferred in groups who received fluoride application.
