Dental fear and anxiety is a significant issue that affects pediatric patients and creates challenges in oral health management. Considering that the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, along with its associated sanitary regime, social distancing measures and nationwide quarantines, could itself induce public fears, including in children, it is of great interest to explore whether this situation and the necessity of reorganizing dental care could potentially affect the emotional state of pediatric patients facing a need for urgent dental intervention
evaluating the effectiveness of smartphone applications (Tell-Play-Do) (TPD) in reduction of preoperative anxiety in children undergoing restorative treatment, as measured by heart rate and Venham's Picture Test.
Background: To evaluate the effect of the anxiety of a parent accompanying a child on the child's anxiety during treatment. Methods: Parents of 160 patients (4-8 years old) were divided into two groups anxious and non-anxious. Each groups had separated two randomized subgroups that with/without parents accompanied their children. At the first visit, participating children were examined while the behavior of the child during the examination was evaluated by a single pediatric dentist according to their heart rates measured by a portable pulse oximeter and the data were recorded (objective data).Forty-two children with a score of 1 and 4 on the Frankel Scale were excluded. After the parents were divided into two groups, anxious and non-anxious, the groups were equally divided randomly and the parents accompanied their children during the treatment. Patients were recalled after one week for the treatment visit. Both groups were evaluated using the basic behavior technique. Compomer fillings were performed on children with infiltration anesthesia. The children's heart rates were measured by a portable pulse oximeter during treatment. Finally, the children were asked to express how they felt about the treatment by pointing out one of the faces on the Wong-Baker Faces Scale (subjective data). The children also rated the experience on the Frankel scale administered by the same operator.

Objective: This study aimed to assess whether pediatric dental anxiety is due to the day of dental appointment, to the dental chair, or to the dental treatment procedure during the course of the first dental treatment in children. Study Design: Salivary cortisol samples were taken on three sequential days (pre-treatment, treatment and post-treatment days) and during the beginning and at ~15th minute of treatment, and at 15th minute post-treatment in children. They received (n=135; 15/group) root-canal treatment, pulpotomy, two- and one-surface restoration with and without local anesthesia; fluoride (with arch tray or cotton roll) or fissure sealant applications. Heart rate and SpO2 (peripheral oxygen saturation ) were monitored and The Facial Image Scale (FIS) and Children's Fear Survey Schedule-Dental subscales (CFSS-DS) were filled.
