Anxiety is a kind of emotional disorder associated with unexpected or considered dangerous situations. Physiological signs that can be observed are sweating, increased blood pressure, tachycardia, dry mouth, diarrhea, muscle tension, and hyperventilation. The prevalence of anxiety for worldwide dental patients is considered high, reaching 6-15% of the population and usually starting from childhood (51%) and adolescents (22%). A study showed that 25% of primary-school-age children undergoing dental treatment experienced severe anxiety, 50% moderate anxiety, and 20% mild anxiety.
Aromatherapy is a relaxation therapy media that uses aromatic essence extracts from plant parts. Aromatherapy is used to treat and improve physical and psychological health. Aromatherapy essential oil stimulates receptors in the nose, then the information is transmitted further to areas in the brain that control emotions and provide information to the hypothalamus, which is a regulator of the internal system of the body so that it reacts to stress.
Sandalwood is one of 22 species of the genus Santalum in the world and is a commercial species through Santalol oil that is widely used as a feedstock for aromatherapy. Sandalwood has a distinctive aroma. This aroma comes from the main content of sandalwood, Santa lol. The quality of sandalwood oil is determined by the content of a-santalol and P-santalol. a-santalol and P-santalol are sesquiterpene organic compounds. Through aromatherapy, sandalwood oil is widely used to relieve anxiety, stress, and depression. This oil has neuroleptic, calming, and bronchial dilatation effects.
