Abstract: Fear and anxiety are known psychological responses to painful stimuli. These terms are used together in this study to increase the number of studies that can be included in order to make the results conducive. A third term also commonly used is phobia. These negative states of mind are common in patients seen in the field of dentistry. In a long list of fears and phobias, dental fear is ranked number 4 by prevelance. A studyconducted in Australia says that only 52.8% of paticipants indicated no or low dental anxiety. Furthur research has revealed thatnot all dental procedures result in the similar level of anxiety. Dental surgery, especially tooth extraction is among the top 5 most feared dental treatments after the fear of being pricked for local anasthesia. It has been derived from various studies that losing a tooth also attirbutes as a stimulant for anxiety. Doctors all over the world find It very challenging to deal with anxious patients. A special councelling and a session of positive words may be required befor the actual dental procedure in order to change the mood of the patient and to mentally prepare the patient for the procedure. Hence, anxiety during any dental procedure must be controlled and in order to do this, the factors stimulating anxiety and fear must be identified in a standard way. METHODS: An electronic literature search was conducted of the PUBMED, ScienceDirect covering the period January 2004 to May 2014. Screening was performed at the full-text level. The review included all human prospective and retrospective studie, clinical trials, cohort studies, casecontrol studies, that concluded at the least of one factor determining tooth extraction anxiety The search identified 16 articles meeting the inclusion criteria. Factors related to tooth extraction in patients were assessed: level to anxiety, pain expectations , level of disturbance when the procedure is being performed, difficulty level of the procedure, marital status, social class, and type of local anaesthesia administered. Video was used as the method of providing information, past negative dental experiences lead to increase in anxiety among patients. RESULTS: Due to disagreements between studies, further investigations into the other factors are required to clarify the results. However, the absence of a single and appropriate scale that includes both the patient’s evaluation and that of the doctor, hinders the rating of patient anxiety. Key words: dental anxiety; tooth extraction; systematic review; factors.
Keywords: anxiety,patient
