Dental anxiety often leads to full mouth extractions, a decision patients frequently consider for years. Most patients initiate this process, often after discussing it within their social network.

Area of Science:

  • Dentistry
  • Social Sciences

Background:

  • Full mouth extraction is a significant dental procedure influenced by social factors.
  • Patient anxiety is a primary driver for avoiding dental care and considering extraction.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the reasons and decision-making processes behind full mouth extractions in The Netherlands.
  • To explore the role of social networks in the decision for full mouth extraction.

Main Methods:

  • A research project was conducted in The Netherlands focusing on patients undergoing full mouth extractions.
  • Data was collected on patient history, decision initiation, and social consultations.

Main Results:

  • Over one-third of patients considered full mouth extractions previously, with 16% considering it frequently over many years.

  • Anxiety was the main reason for not visiting a dentist.
  • Patients (86%) and dentists (70%) agreed patients initiated the decision.
  • Patients often discussed the decision with their social network (87%).
  • Two patient groups emerged based on social network structure: older patients with truncated networks and younger patients with extended networks.

    • Conclusions:

    • Full mouth extractions involve complex dental and social processes.
    • Patient-initiated decisions, often influenced by anxiety and social support, are common.
    • Dentists should involve the patient's social network in significant treatment decisions to mitigate potential issues.
