    Journal: J Am Dent Assoc; 1984 May; 108(5):778-80. PubMed ID: 6588120.
    Abstract:
    A double-blind randomized clinical trial of the effectiveness of orally administered diazepam in reducing dental anxiety was conducted. Forty-one subjects were assigned to a diazepam or placebo group and tested, using the Dental Fear Survey and State-Trait Anxiety Inventory. Diazepam was effective in reducing anxiety scores but not dental fear scores.
