Abstract
Dental anxiety is the second most common reason for patients to forgo treatment in France. Based on this observation, the odontology and psychiatry departments of Henri Mondor hospital proposed a collaborative approach to help these patients. The aim of this study is to evaluate the results of this pilot project over one year. The patients appreciated the consultation, considering it a tool to help them be able to receive care. This consultation also resulted in 17 percent of patients being offered psychological care in order to treat other problems related to dental anxiety. The idea of a network of practitioners specialized in the treatment of these anxious patients is therefore proposed, the patients having emphasized that not having to re-explain their anxieties would be a relief.
