Aromatherapy relieves dental tang: New study reveals the effective use of essential oils

aromatherapy to alleviate dentists: women and especially fearful people benefit the most

It is generally known that many people suffer from dentistry. This describes the specific reaction of patients to stress -related dental treatments. This fear is triggered, among other things, by the sound of drills or the smell of dental practices. The fear of visiting a dentist can have a negative impact on mouth and dental health and lead to serious health problems and tooth loss. This is where a new study comes in, which examines the possible effects of essential oils on the anxiety of patients in dental practices.

The Charité-University Medicine Berlin research team carried out a study in cooperation with the aromatherapy specialist Primavera to examine the effect of scoring dental practices with essential oils on the anxiety of the patient. The results have now been published in the renowned specialist journal "Scientific Reports".

A total of 486 patients took part in the study. In four dental practices in Berlin, five weekly mooring cycles with various essential oils were carried out. The nuisance took place with natural oils from Primavera, including orange, stone pine as well as the fragrance mixtures "good mood" and "forest walk". A control group was not abandoned and only received water. The evaluation of the study resulted in significant differences between the patient groups. Both in women and the patients with strong dentistry tang, the anxiety in the fragrant rooms were significantly lower.

The study shows that the use of essential oils to reduce anxiety in dental practices can be effective. Women and people with pronounced dentist tangs in particular benefit from the scoring of the rooms. The essential oils used were selected due to their fear -relieving and relaxing effects and are intended to promote physical relaxation and well -being.

The results of this study contribute to the growing evidence base about the effectiveness of essential oils in relief for dentistry tang. It is already known that essential oils such as lavender and orange have shown positive effects in other studies. The present study complements these findings and offers new opportunities to improve dental care for anxious patients.

Aromatherapy can therefore be seen as an alternative method to relieve anxiety from dentist treatments. By scoring the rooms with natural etheric oils, both women and especially fearful people can benefit from a more relaxed and pleasant atmosphere during their dentist visit.
