Evaluation of the Effects of Regular Piano Training on Dental Anxiety and Stress Levels in Children During Preventive Dental Treatment
This study aims to evaluate dental anxiety and stress levels in children receiving regular piano training compared with children without piano training during preventive dental treatment.
A total of 80 children aged 7-11 years, including 40 children receiving piano education and 40 controls, were included in the study.
All participants underwent fissure sealant application using the Tell-Show-Do behavioral guidance technique.
Dental anxiety was assessed before and after treatment using the Modified Child Dental Anxiety Scale-Faces Version (MCDASf), Facial Image Scale (FIS), and physiological parameters including pulse rate, blood pressure, oxygen saturation, and body temperature.
Stress levels were evaluated using the PeSSKi scale.
The study investigates whether regular piano education contributes to reduced dental anxiety and stress responses in pediatric dental patients.

Interventie / Behandeling |
|---|---|
|
Experimenteel: Regular Piano Training Group
Children aged 7-11 years who received regular piano training and underwent fissure sealant application.
|
Regular piano education received by children prior to preventive dental treatment.
Children in this group had ongoing piano training and were evaluated for dental anxiety, stress levels, and physiological responses during fissure sealant application using the Tell-Show-Do technique.
|
|
Ander: Control Group
Children aged 7-11 years without regular piano training who underwent fissure sealant application.
|
Children without regular piano training who underwent preventive dental treatment and fissure sealant application using the Tell-Show-Do technique.
Dental anxiety, stress levels, and physiological parameters were evaluated before and after treatment.

Maatregel Beschrijving |
Tijdsspanne |
|---|---|---|
|
Dental Anxiety Level Measured by the Modified Child Dental Anxiety Scale-Faces Version
Tijdsspanne: Before and immediately after fissure sealant application
|
Dental anxiety levels during preventive dental treatment will be assessed using the Modified Child Dental Anxiety Scale-Faces Version (MCDASf).
The MCDASf score ranges from 8 to 40 points, with higher scores indicating greater dental anxiety.
|
Before and immediately after fissure sealant application
|
|
Dental Anxiety Level Measured by the Facial Image Scale
Tijdsspanne: Before and immediately after fissure sealant application
|
Dental anxiety levels during preventive dental treatment will be assessed using the Facial Image Scale (FIS).
The FIS score ranges from 1 to 5 points, with higher scores indicating greater dental anxiety.
|
Before and immediately after fissure sealant application

Tijdsspanne |
|---|---|---|
|
Stress Level Measured by the Pediatric Emotional Stress Scale in Kindergarten Intervention (PeSSKI)
Tijdsspanne: Before and immediately after fissure sealant application
|
Stress levels will be assessed using the Pediatric Emotional Stress Scale in Kindergarten Intervention (PeSSKI) during preventive dental treatment. The PeSSKi total score ranges from 10 to 50 points, with higher scores indicating higher perceived stress levels in children. |
Before and immediately after fissure sealant application
|
|
Pulse Rate During Preventive Dental Treatment
Tijdsspanne: Before and immediately after fissure sealant application
|
Pulse rate will be measured in beats per minute (bpm) before and immediately after fissure sealant application during preventive dental treatment.
Higher values indicate increased physiological arousal/anxiety.
|
Before and immediately after fissure sealant application
|
|
Systolic Blood Pressure
Tijdsspanne: Before and immediately after fissure sealant application.
|
Systolic blood pressure will be measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg) before and immediately after fissure sealant application during preventive dental treatment.
Higher values indicate increased physiological stress response.
|
Before and immediately after fissure sealant application.
|
|
Diastolic Blood Pressure
Tijdsspanne: Before and immediately after fissure sealant application
|
Diastolic blood pressure will be measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg) before and immediately after fissure sealant application during preventive dental treatment.
Higher values indicate increased physiological stress response.
|
Before and immediately after fissure sealant application
|
|
Oxygen Saturation
Tijdsspanne: Before and immediately after fissure sealant application
|
Peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO₂) will be measured as percentage (%) before and immediately after fissure sealant application during preventive dental treatment.
Higher values indicate better oxygenation status.
|
Before and immediately after fissure sealant application
|
|
Body Temperature
Tijdsspanne: Before and immediately after fissure sealant application
|
Body temperature will be measured in degrees Celsius (°C) before and immediately after fissure sealant application during preventive dental treatment.
