Abstract
Objective: The objective of the study is to assess the child's anxiety before and after treatment using the auditory visual distraction technique in children.
Methodology: It is a quantitative, descriptive and cross-sectional study. The study was carried out between 2016 and 2017 in two pediatric stomatology clinics. Anxiety was assessed before and after treatment using the audiovisual technique.
Results: It appears that mild anxiety increases after treatment from 18% to 47%. Moderate to severe anxiety decreases from 16% to 3%, it is observed that no child after treatment has severe anxiety. These results are statistically significant.
Conclusions: In conclusion, the visual auditory distraction technique can be an effective method to reduce anxiety levels in pediatric patients during invasive dental treatment.
