RECRUITINGChange in the Anxiety Score
Patients fill out the Dental Anxiety Scale(Visual Analogue Scale) when they sit in the dental unit. Ten minutes after the glasses are worn, patients fill out the anxiety scale again. Changes in the scores are the primary outcome of the study. The scale range is 0-10. A lower score means better results.
Time frame: 1 minute after the participant sits the dental unit and 10 minutes after
Change in the oxygen saturation
Saturation measurement is done from the fingertip using a pulse oximeter one minute after the patient sits in the dental unit and after ten minutes. Changes in the scores are the secondary outcome of the study. The average value is above %90.
Time frame: 1 minute after the participant sits the dental unit and 10 minutes after
Change in the pulsation
Pulsation was measured from the fingertip by a pulse oximeter one minute after the patient sat in the dental unit and after ten minutes. Changes in the scores are the secondary outcome of the study. The average value is between 65 and 75.
Time frame: 1 minute after the participant sits the dental unit and 10 minutes after
Intraoperative Pain Score
Measuring the pain felt by the patient after the operation with the help of the visual analog scale. The range of Scala is 0-10. A lower score means better results.
Time frame: 1 minutes after the surgery
Change in the salivary cortisol level
Measuring the salivary cortisol level one minute after the patient sits in the dental unit and after ten minutes. Changes in the levels are the secondary outcome of the study.
Time frame: 1 minute after the participant sits the dental unit and 10 minutes after
