[Online survey on dental anxiety results].

In the months leading up to this special on 'dental anxiety', an online survey was conducted on various aspects of the treatment of anxious patients. This survey was completed by 128 people, of whom approximately one third were men and two thirds were women. The results show that more than half of the respondents feel they haven't learned enough about treating anxious patients during the training. Yet more than two thirds of the respondents also indicated they did not refer anxious patients to a Centre for Special Dentistry. The reasons for this are not clear.
