[Interdisciplinary care of children with extreme dental anxiety]

Children suffering from extreme dental anxiety were treated in groups of 4 to 5 children according to behaviour-therapeutical programmes in interdisciplinary co-operation (stomatology/psychology), with the parents included in diagnosis and therapy. The results of the therapy in two groups of 5-11 year-olds and in one group of 10-13 year-olds are presented. The efficiency of the treatment decreases with age.
