Abstract
In everyday dental practice cooperation between the patient and the therapeutist is of extreme importance because it represents a component on which frequently depend the choice of the dental intervention and equally the success of this intervention. Better cooperation with the patient may be achieved by the appropriate approach, thus reducing fear and psychical tension which the patient experiences at the time of entering the dentist's practice. The authors have taken the blood pressure of a control and an experimental group of test subjects starting from the assumption that oscillations of pressure might partly be an indicator of internal tension in the patient.
