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.
