Stress in dental school: a survey of students.

Full Abstract

The authors set up a study to investigate the levels of stress experienced by dental students and the students' perceptions of the sources of stress.

Sources of stress included the practice of conservative dental surgery, dealing with administration and dealing with clinical demonstrators.
