Abstract

Objectives Children’, s Dental fear is a major issue in avoidance of dental visits, which exacerbates dental health problems and is associated with multiple factors. The dentist’, s behavior is one of the influential factors in Dental fear. This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between dentistry students’,personality type and Children’, s Dental fear. Methods This descriptive, analytical, cross-sectional study was performed on 30 dentistry students and 34 Children in the pediatric ward of Shahid Beheshti Dental School, Tehran, Iran. The Children’, s age was in the range of 7-9 years. To evaluate the students’,personality type, Bortner questionnaire was used, and to investigate Children’, s Dental fear, the Dental Subscale of the Children's Fear Survey Schedule (CFSS-DS) was employed. The Children completed the questionnaire twice, once before and once after treatment with the assistance of their parents. Fisher’, s exact test (P<0. 05), independent t-test (P<0. 05), and ANCOVA (P<0. 05) tests were performed for statistical analysis. Results According to the students’,responses to the Bortner questionnaire, they were divided into two groups: 18 students with Type A Personality and 12 students with Type B Personality. The Children were also divided into two groups. Twenty-two Children were treated by dentists with Type A Personality (group A), and twelve Children were treated by dentists with Type B Personality (group B). Changes in the mean CFSS-DS score following dental treatment were +2. 09±, 7. 7 and-2. 17±, 4. 95 in group A and group B, respectively. The mean change in the CFSS score of Children in group A was higher than that of Children in group B, although the difference was not significant (P=0. 096).
