“…6,17-20 However, perceived stressors varied considerably among students from different dental schools and across different year levels. 6,21,22 The reason for this variation can be attributed to the accumulative nature of academic and clinical work through the course. 3,6 Students in their first year of dental school were more likely to be stressed about academics, whereas students in higher levels were more stressed about clinical work.…”

Background. Dental students have reported a high prevalence of psychological stress and the causes are associated with the challenging dental environmental and demographic factors. This study aimed to conduct a preliminary investigation on dental students’ stress status, using a sample of first-to-third-year Bachelor of Dental Surgery students in an Australian university. Special interests included causes of dental environmental stress and access to help services.Methods. A sample of 145 students was surveyed with a modified Dental Environmental Survey and Depression Anxiety Stress Scale in 2014. The participants’ demographic information was also collected.Results. The response rate was 95.4%. Second-year (P = 0.042), third-year (P < 0.001) and employed students (P = 0.027) were more likely to report stress resulting from transition to clinical learning. Third-year students were more often stressed about communicating and approaching staff (P = 0.023) as well as different opinions between staff (P < 0.001) and reduced holidays (P < 0.001). Students that were younger than 21 years of age (P = 0.001), that were first years (P < 0.001), and that were not in a relationship (P = 0.010) more often found difficulty of course work stressful. Students who were not in a relationship more often considered learning manual dexterity a source of stress (P = 0.034). Students previously seeking professional help were more likely to be stressed (P = 0.010).Conclusion. Causes of dental environment stress varied among years of study and demographic backgrounds. Professional support to stressed students should be enhanced. Further investigation is indicated.

Introducción: La prevalencia de altos niveles de estrés, así como sus consecuencias está bien documentada entre los estudiantes de ciencias de la salud, y en particular en la odontología. Los altos niveles de estrés percibido entre los estudiantes de odontología se han asociado con síntomas físicos, trastornos psicológicos, agotamiento emocional y agotamiento profesional. Objetivo: identificar la prevalencia de estrés académico, los factores asociados y los niveles de presión arterial en estudiantes de pregrado de odontología de la Corporación Universitaria Núñez de Cartagena. Materiales y Métodos: estudio descriptivo de corte transversal, en 245 estudiantes de pregrado de odontología, a quienes se les aplico la versión en español del instrumento DES-30 Sp, adicionalmente se recolecto información sobre las condiciones sociodemográficos, socioeconómicas, elección de la profesión y niveles de presión arterial. El análisis estadístico se basó en un análisis descriptivo y bivariado de los datos. Resultados: de 245 estudiantes de pregrado de odontología, la mayoría eran de género femenino, edad promedio de 19.8 años de estrato socioeconómico bajo, el factor estresor más frecuente fue: “miedo a reprobar un curso o un año” y los niveles de presión arterial se encontraban dentro de los rangos normales. Conclusión: los resultados de este estudio permitirán diseñar estrategias que faciliten el desempeño académico de acuerdo con los factores estresores encontrados.
