다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Purpose: This study lays its purpose on finding general trends in dental fear(dental phobia) among adolescences at 15~17 years of age, differences in levels of dental fear according to relevant variables, and the degrees to which those variables influence fear of dental treatment and their causal relationships.
Methods: The researcher made use of a questionnaire including tools of questionnaire survey - DFS, DBS and GFS - and questions regarding characteristics of adolescences, and then analyzed covariate structure modeling by using LISREL 8.12 after conducting univariate analysis by employing SPSS.
Results: Cronbach's reliability coefficients showed higher in DFS (0.957), DBS (0.916), and GFS (0.910), and females rather than males showed higher levels of dental fear, and of types of traits, trait Ⅲ showed lower levels of dental fear than the others, and also the less perceived dental health status and the more recent experience in pain in the oral cavity and the stronger pain when treating dental disease and the more frequent experience in pain when treating dental disease and also the more broken dental appointments, the higher levels of dental fear showed with statistical significance. In addition, there showed a positive correlation between fear of dental treatment, a distrust of dentists, and a general feeling of fear. The linear structure equation model was statistically appropriate and well fit. By the model, severity and frequency of pain during treatment and experience of breaking dental visit appointment were directly influenced on dental fear.
Conclusion: It is necessary to establish special efforts about dental fear and anxiety control for all patients. Educational interventions aimed at reducing the dental fear and anxiety in a dental office should be emphasized among dental personnels.
