Fear of visiting the dentist is a frequent problem in
paediatric dentistry. A new study confirms the emotional transmission
of dentist fear among family members and analyses the different roles
that mothers and fathers might play.
A new study conducted by scientists at the Rey Juan Carlos University of
Madrid highlights the important role that parents play in the
transmission of dentist fear in their family.
Previous studies had already identified the association between the fear
levels of parents and their children, but they never explored the
different roles that the father and the mother play in this phenomenon. |

From this issue on, I will post the content of an excellent dental educational book " I hate dentists!" by Dr. Mac Lee. It will take me many days to finish posting this book, so come back to this website and read on if you find this book interesting and helpful.
Why
people hate dentists
During
the 1950s, TV was coming of age with shows likeHowdy
Doody,Sky
King,Hopalong
Cassidy,andThe
Honeymooners.The"tube"entered
households
at the speed of Superman and became a national pastime. |
