Abstract

Objective: To observe the behavior therapy efficacy in dental fear patients for dental extraction using video eyewear and N_2O inhalation. Methods: 100 patients were divided into two groups, one group only used N_2O and other group used N_2O with video eyewear. Compared two groups′ Frankl behavior rating scale and Houpt scale after dental extraction. The HR and SpO_2 were measured during dental extraction. Results: Using video eyewear and N_2O showed a significant good sedative effect on patients with dental fear. There were statistical difference in the Frankl behavior rating scale and Houpt scale between experiment group and control group(P<0.01). There were no significant changes in heat rate and SpO_2 before and after in two groups. Conclusion: Video eyewear and N_2O inhalation sedation is good for dental fear patient during dental extraction.
