[Reducing anxiety in the course of dental treatment].
After studying the literature we developed a questionnaire which was handed out to 200 of our patients to elucidate the causes of anxiety and to find out, whether and in how far if was possible to reduce this anxiety. In 73% of our patients the fear was mostly due to unpleasant earlier experience. It was possible to reduce the anxiety in all cases and to completely eliminate it in 63% by building confidence. We presented the anxiety reduction program employed for this purpose.
