Abstract :Regular dental visits facilitate early diagnosis and treatment of oral and dental diseases. It has been shown that patients who regularly visit the dentist have a much healthier oral environment compared to those who do not visit regularly and only go to the dentist when necessary. Dental anxiety is a challenging situation for both the patient and the dentist. The patient\'s negative attitude towards treatment leads to avoidance of dental procedures. This is a significant barrier to carrying out necessary treatments at the right time and in an ideal manner. Our literature review concluded that children experiencing dental anxiety have worse oral and dental health compared to those who do not. Implementing correct behavioral guidance techniques to prevent dental anxiety will also positively contribute to the patient\'s oral and dental health.Keywords : ağız, sağlık, anksiyete, çocuk
