Abstract (2. Language): 
Background: The aim of this study was to determine the effects of parental anxiety and the sociodemographic factors on the dental anxiety of the children. Material and Methods: One hundred and ninety-eight children (aged 3-12 years) applied to the Department of Pediatric Dentistry at the Ondokuz Mayıs University Faculty of Dentistry participated in the study. The children were classified into two groups: 3-6 years (Groups 1, n=84) and 7-12 years (Group 2, n=114). The study consisted of two sections. The sociodemographic informations of the participants including age and gender of children, education level and economic status of the parents were recorded in the first section. In the second section, the level of dental anxiety of children and parents were determined. Venham Picture Test and Frankl's Behavioral Scale were used in Group I, Children's Fear Survey Schedule-Dental Subscale and Frankl's Behavioral Scale were used in Group II, Dental Anxiety Scale was also used in parents. Results: Dental anxiety was higher among 3-6 year old children (Group 1) than among 7-12 year old children (Group 2). No significant differences were found between the gender of children, economic status of parents and the anxiety scores in Group 1 and 2 (p>0.05). Also, there was no statistically significant correlation between the anxiety level of the mother and that of their child (p>0.05). Conclusion: It is concluded children could be able to cope with potentially dental anxiety with advancing age. Also, the children's dental anxiety is not influenced by of maternal dental anxiety.

Abstract (Original Language): 
Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, ebeveyn dental kaygısı ve sosyodemografik faktörlerin çocukların dental kaygısı üzerine etkilerini değerlendirmektir. Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışma, Ondokuz Mayıs Üniversitesi Diş Hekimliği Fakültesi Pedodonti Anabilim Dalı Kliniği'ne başvuran, 3-12 yaşları arasındaki toplam 198 çocuk üzerinde yürütüldü. Çocuklar, 3-6 yaş (Grup 1, n=84) ve 7-12 yaş (Grup 2, n=114) olmak üzere iki gruba ayrıldı. Çalışma iki aşamada yürütüldü. İlk bölümde; çocuğun yaşı, cinsiyeti, ebeveynin eğitim düzeyi, gelir durumu gibi sosyodemografik bilgiler kaydedildi. Dental kaygının belirlenmesine yönelik ikinci bölümde; 3-6 yaş grubunda Venham Resim Testi ve Frankl Davranış Skalası kullanılırken, 7-12 yaş grubunda Çocuk Korku Değerlendirme Skalası ve Frankl Davranış Skalası kullanıldı. Ebeveynlerin dental kaygısı ise Dental Kaygı Skalası ile belirlendi. Bulgular: 3-6 yaş grubu çocukların (Grup 1), 7-12 yaş grubu (Grup 2) çocuklardan daha kaygılı olduğu saptandı. Her iki grupta da, çocukların dental kaygı seviyesi ile cinsiyet arasında anlamlı bir ilişki tespit edilemedi (p>0,05). Ayrıca, anneler ile çocukların dental kaygı seviyeleri arasında da istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir ilişki gözlenmedi (p>0,05). Sonuç: Bu çalışmada, çocukların yaş ilerledikçe dental kaygı ile baş etme yeteneklerinin arttığı ve annenin dental kaygısının çocuklar üzerinde etkili olmadığı sonucuna varılmıştır.
