Summary

Anxiety is an important issue in dental care for adults, children and adolescents. Dental anxiety affects 10-20% of adults and 43% of children and adolescents. Dental anxiety often leads to avoiding dental treatment; this can cause serious deterioration of oral and dental health. Such deterioration can significantly increase dental care costs. Therefore, reducing anxiety is important both in terms of patient, physician and cost. Music intervention is a psychological therapy that has many advantages when used in outpatient treatment, including cost-effectiveness, lack of negative physical effects, rapid effect, lack of safety in terms of non-use and lack of concern for recovery. Some types of studies suggested but not tested against each other include classical music, soft rock, calming music, pop, easy listening music, and music of choice.

With the contradictory results of various studies, the fact that the distraction of music and its distraction on the reduction of tooth anxiety is not common shows that a more structured study is needed. The lack of precise data on the effects of different music types on anxiety has led to this study.
