Introduction: Modified Dental Anxiety Scale (MDAS) questionnaire is a simplified 5-point scale answering scheme, ranging from not anxious to extremely anxious. Anxious level can be reduced through dental hypnosis. Dental hypnosis monitoring device is an innovative device due to the Student Creativity Program Universitas Padjadjaran. The device can monitor a patient's consciousness by monitoring the brain wave level so that dentists can determine what steps to take when handling a patient.
