Introduction: population aging is a worldwide phenomenon, and oral surgery is complex in elderly patients. Therefore, preoperative preparation is vital to their satisfactory evolution. The purpose of the present paper is to show the efficacy of hypnosis in elderly patients who fear oral surgery.Methods: aA descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted with a sample of 20 patients aged 60 or over, cared for at the maxillofacial surgery service of Comandante Manuel Fajardo University Hospital in the year 2011. The variables analyzed were age, sex, number of hypnotic sessions, disease history, most frequent diagnoses and fear.Results: most patients fell into the 60-69 age group (70 %). The remaining 30 % were in the 70-79 age group. Female sex predominated with 70 %. The highest number of sessions was 58 in the 60-69 age group, with an average of 4 per patient. The most frequent pathological antecedents were hypertension in 14 (70 %), followed by type II diabetes in 2 (10 %). The most common diagnoses were fourth degree caries in 10 (50 %), followed by parodontic teeth in 4 (20 %). Fear was measured with a dedicated scale on which patient scores of 10, 8 and 7 were reduced to 4 and 5.Conclusions: hypnotic therapy was shown to be effective to relieve fear of oral surgery in elderly persons.
