What role do parents play in patients dental
fears?
The major role is education. “ Fearful parents can actually create a nervous and anxious child. If a parent has severe dental anxieties, he or she needs to make every effort not to pass those fears onto the child.” In USA there is common practice for the doctor to send a welcome letter to the parents prior to the first visit.

1. A positive feedback from teachers.2. The little ones can cooperate if we speak
their language.3. During the past years the children’s fear
of dentistry decreased. Nowadays kids do not fear the dentist as much as we expect, most of them describing a state of relaxation or slight anxiety when they are in the waiting room and also during dental treatments.
Conclusions
"A parent's positive presence during early dental visits will empower a child to a lifetime of positive dental experiences."
say Dr. Soxman.
