Abstract
The apparent association in the published literature of gender and age with dental fear and anxiety is far from consistent or universal. A random, age‐stratified telephone survey of 398 adults was performed in a US metropolitan area: Denver, Colorado. Information collected included Kleinknecht's Dental Fear Survey (DFS). In addition to total DFS scores, values were also calculated for the sums of the five DFS. physiologic response items (PATRESP) and 12 DFS fear‐producing stimulus items (DENTSTIM). Tests for reliability of these three scales were performed (alpha = 0.804 to 0.936). In this sample population, significant age and gender differences were noted. In general, fear and anxiety decreased in importance with increased respondent age, with the largest difference noted between the 40–50 and 60–69 age groups. Increased fear and anxiety were most apparent among younger females (20–30 and 40–50) as compared with older females (60 and older). However, among males, the summary variable for physiologic response to fear and anxiety did not appear to be age‐related. Among the oldest respondents (ages 70+), 12.2% did report a “major” response to muscle tension when in the dental chair. Females reported more fear of some stimuli associated with dental care (e.g., “feeling the drill in the mouth”) than did males.

However, among males, the summary variable for physiologic response to fear and anxiety did not appear to be age‐related. Among the oldest respondents (ages 70+), 12.2% did report a “major” response to muscle tension when in the dental chair. Females reported more fear of some stimuli associated with dental care (e.g., “feeling the drill in the mouth”) than did males.</p></abstract><textClass><keywords rend="tocHeading1"><term>Feature Article</term></keywords></textClass><langUsage><language ident="en"></language></langUsage></profileDesc></teiHeader></istex:fulltextTEI><json:item><extension>txt</extension><original>false</original><mimetype>text/plain</mimetype><uri>https://api.istex.fr/document/63B13F750EE4FF898E525D921397EDFF2C096C56/fulltext/txt</uri></json:item></fulltext><metadata><istex:metadataXml wicri:clean="Wiley, elements deleted: body"><istex:xmlDeclaration>version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"</istex:xmlDeclaration><istex:document><component version="2.0" type="serialArticle" xml:lang="en"><header><publicationMeta level="product"><publisherInfo><publisherName>Blackwell Publishing Ltd</publisherName><publisherLoc>Oxford, UK</publisherLoc></publisherInfo><doi origin="wiley" registered="yes">10.1111/(ISSN)1754-4505</doi><issn type="print">0275-1879</issn><issn type="electronic">1754-4505</issn><idGroup><id type="product" value="SCD"></id><id type="publisherDivision" value="ST"></id></idGroup><titleGroup><title type="main" sort="SPECIAL CARE IN DENTISTRY">Special Care in Dentistry</title></titleGroup></publicationMeta><publicationMeta level="part" position="05003"><doi origin="wiley">10.1111/scd.1997.17.issue-3</doi><numberingGroup><numbering type="journalVolume" number="17">17</numbering><numbering type="journalIssue" number="3">3</numbering></numberingGroup><coverDate startDate="1997-05">May 1997</coverDate></publicationMeta><publicationMeta level="unit" type="miscellaneous" position="0008200" status="forIssue"><doi origin="wiley">10.1111/j.1754-4505.1997.tb00873.x</doi><idGroup><id type="unit" value="SCD82"></id></idGroup><countGroup><count type="pageTotal" number="6"></count></countGroup><titleGroup><title type="tocHeading1">Feature Article</title></titleGroup><eventGroup><event type="firstOnline" date="2008-06-28"></event><event type="publishedOnlineFinalForm" date="2008-06-28"></event><event type="xmlConverted" agent="Converter:BPG_TO_WML3G version:2.3.6 mode:FullText source:HeaderRef result:HeaderRef" date="2010-04-21"></event><event type="xmlConverted" agent="Converter:WILEY_ML3G_TO_WILEY_ML3GV2 version:3.8.8" date="2014-02-08"></event><event type="xmlConverted" agent="Converter:WML3G_To_WML3G version:4.1.7 mode:FullText,remove_FC" date="2014-11-03"></event></eventGroup><numberingGroup><numbering type="pageFirst" number="82">82</numbering><numbering type="pageLast" number="87">87</numbering></numberingGroup><correspondenceTo>Correspondence should be addressed to Dr. Holtzman</correspondenceTo><linkGroup><link type="toTypesetVersion" href="file:SCD.SCD82.pdf"></link></linkGroup></publicationMeta><contentMeta><countGroup><count type="referenceTotal" number="25"></count><count type="linksCrossRef" number="5"></count></countGroup><titleGroup><title type="main">The relationship of age and gender to fear and anxiety in response to dental care</title></titleGroup><creators><creator creatorRole="author" xml:id="cr1" affiliationRef="#a1" corresponding="yes"><personName><givenNames>Joseph M.</givenNames><familyName>Holtzman</familyName><degrees>PhD</degrees></personName></creator><creator creatorRole="author" xml:id="cr2" affiliationRef="#a2"><personName><givenNames>Robert G.</givenNames><familyName>Berg</familyName><degrees>DDS, MPH, MS</degrees></personName></creator><creator creatorRole="author" xml:id="cr3" affiliationRef="#a3"><personName><givenNames>Jonathan</givenNames><familyName>Mann</familyName><degrees>DMD, MSc</degrees></personName></creator><creator creatorRole="author" xml:id="cr4" affiliationRef="#a2"><personName><givenNames>Douglas B.</givenNames><familyName>Berkey</familyName><degrees>DMD, MPH, MS</degrees></personName></creator></creators><affiliationGroup><affiliation xml:id="a1" countryCode="US"><unparsedAffiliation>Faculty of the Department of General and Hospital Dentistry, UMDNJ New Jersey Dental School, 110 Bergen Street, Newark, New Jersey 07103–2400, USA</unparsedAffiliation></affiliation><affiliation xml:id="a2" countryCode="US"><unparsedAffiliation>Faculty of the Department of Applied Dentistry, University of Colorado School of Dentistry, Denver, Colorado, USA</unparsedAffiliation></affiliation><affiliation xml:id="a3" countryCode="IL"><unparsedAffiliation>Faculty of the Hebrew University, Hadassah School of Dental Medicine, Jerusalem, Israel</unparsedAffiliation></affiliation></affiliationGroup><abstractGroup><abstract type="main" xml:lang="en"><p>The apparent association in the published literature of gender and age with dental fear and anxiety is far from consistent or universal.
