Salivary cortisol levels in children during dental treatment.
Cortisol which is also called as stress hormone, is used as an indicator in the stress evaluation studies. 60 children who never visited a dentist before, participated in the present study. Saliva samples were collected from 30 children without any dental treatment (control group). Experimental group comprised 30 children with caries. Saliva samples were obtained at various stages during dental treatment. Totally 180 samples were collected and the cortisol levels were measured. Paired-t test has shown that the salivary cortisol levels at various stages of dental treatment in the experiment group were significantly higher in comparison with the control group. It is concluded that dental treatment may cause extreme stress in children who never had dental treatment experience before.
