A cross sectional study of gender differences in dental anxiety prevailing in the students of a Pakistani dental college

Conclusions Female dental students and pre-clinical students were found more anxious as compared to male dental students and clinical students respectively. Counseling sessions and exposure therapy (exposure of clinical procedures in this case) at an early stage of dental training could be helpful in reducing the anxiety levels.
