Visual/Spatial: The group with higher visual intelligence according to the multiple intelligence test results and watch video. Also, will given with a written informed consent document. 3. Verbal/Linguistic: The group with higher verbal/linguistic intelligence according to the multiple intelligence test results and verbally informed in detail about the operation. lso, will given with a written informed consent document 4. Bodily/Kinesthetic: The group with higher bodily/kinesthetic intelligence according to the multiple intelligence test results and informed with a dental model. lso, will given with a written informed consent document To evaluate anxiety; participants will asked to complete MDAS questionnairre before and after consent, and after operation. Also, saliva samples will obtained to evaluate the salivary cortisol before and after consent, and after operation.
