Brief summary
It is aimed to evaluate the effect of music listened by patients with moderate dental anxiety during the restoration of posterior occlusal dental caries on vital signs of the participants.
Detailed description
The study will be applied on 70 patients; 35 patients will be in the control group (the group not listening to music during treatment), 35 patients will be in the experimental group (the group listening to music during treatment). Modified Dental Anxiety Scale consisting of 5 questions will be applied to the participants who come to the clinic and have occlusal dental caries in the posterior region. The participants whose scores are between 10-18 according to this scale will be included in the study. One occlusal tooth decay will be treated. Before starting treatment, saliva cortisol levels, heart rate, body temperature, systolic and diastolic blood pressure and oxygen saturation measurements will be made. The participants will be asked to spit in sterile plastic containers for saliva cortisol measurement. During dental treatment, the participants will listen to music in experimental group. In control group the participant will not listen to music. Heart rate, body temperature, systolic and diastolic blood pressure and oxygen saturation measurements will be repeated in the middle of the treatment (without going through the restoration phase when the cavity is opened). Saliva cortisol levels, heart rate, body temperature, systolic and diastolic blood pressure and oxygen saturation measurements will be repeated when the treatment is completed. The questionnaire containing the modified dental anxiety scale will be re-administered to the participants.
