Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The objective of this descriptive investigation was to evaluate the psychological profile of dental patients in three levels: global level, the dimensional level, and the discrete symptom level and to compare it with a control group.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Many people is afraid of dental treatment specially local anesthesia and do not refer to dental clinics until they are obliged due to dental pain. There are so many articles in the literature about dental phobia and fear of anesthetic injection. Due to these evidences, dental people are supposed to show elevated psychological dimensions such as anxiety, and somatization.

We are going to know which psychological dimensions of dental patients may be elevated when they refer to dental clinics.
