No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Tooth extraction is one of the most common surgical procedures in dentistry. Up to 15% of the world's adult population suffers from high anxiety about dental treatments. The stress resulting from this anxiety may cause a delay in the healing and fusion of the surgical wound. Therefore, it is possible to perform this surgical tooth extraction procedure under general anesthesia.

The purpose of the present study is to assess the level of anxiety/fear and to monitor the wound healing process among patients who are about to undergo surgery to remove wisdom teeth or no more than 3 jaw implants under local anesthesia in the dental clinic compared to patients who are about to undergo the same surgery under general anesthesia.
