Effect of Music Listening on Anxiety During Diode Laser Frenectomy
Sponsor: Necmettin Erbakan University
Summary
This randomized controlled trial evaluated the effect of music listening on anxiety, stress, and pain in patients undergoing diode laser frenectomy. Participants were adults aged 18 to 65 years who were scheduled to receive frenectomy as part of their routine periodontal treatment. Participants were allocated into two groups: a music group, in which patients listened to a pre-recorded music performance during the procedure, and a control group, in which patients received the routine procedure without music. Anxiety and stress levels were assessed using validated questionnaires before and after the procedure. Postoperative pain was evaluated using a visual analogue scale. In the music group, patients also completed an additional questionnaire about their experience with music during the procedure. The study aimed to determine whether listening to music during frenectomy could improve patient comfort by reducing anxiety, perceived stress, and pain.

Music Listening
Participants assigned to the music listening group listened to a pre-recorded instrumental Turkish music performance during diode laser frenectomy. The music was played as an adjunct to routine clinical care and was intended to improve patient comfort during the procedure. Participants in the control group received the same routine diode laser frenectomy procedure without music listening.
