Abstract

In the present study dental anxiety and blood pressure were assessed immediately prior to a dental appointment to assess the relationship between self-reported dental anxiety and blood pressure. Blood pressure was assessed by two independent methods, and the interchangeability of the blood-pressure measurement methods was also assessed. No relationship was demonstrated among scores on three dental anxiety questionnaires and blood-pressure values. The blood-pressure measurement methods delivered comparable values for diastolic and mean arterial blood pressure only.
