Abstract
This study examined associations between dental anxiety and dental care use and oral health status in dentate older adults. Analysis of data from the Piedmont 65+ Dental Study revealed that aspects of dental care use and oral health status were independently associated with high dental anxiety. These results suggest that measures to control dental anxiety may help to improve dental care use and oral health status in older adults.
