- ÍtemAcceso AbiertoImportancia del estrés en la consulta odontológica en la primera infancia: revisión bibliográfica(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2021) Romero Illescas, Mateo Sebastián; Calle Prado, María Daniela; 0105094858Stress was first described by Hans Selye (1936), an Austrian physician who defined it as "nervous tension" to explain the response of the system to exogenous stimuli. This article aims to learn about the factors that generate and promote stress during dental consultations, both for pediatric patients in early childhood, as well as for parents and oral health professionals. In the dental office, the most common stressors are painful experiences, which result in certain complications at the time of providing dental care, generating stress in pediatric patients, parents, and the dentist, which is why pain management is of utmost importance. Health professionals often find themselves in stressful situations, and dentistry, being an area with a high level of theoretical knowledge and skill, on its own can become a challenge, even more so in pediatric dentistry for which control is needed in the behavior of the child and the parents, creating a stressful environment. At the end of the literature review, it was concluded that stress, both positive and negative, and its control, is an extremely important factor that modifies the behavior of children in pediatric dentistry.
