Mapping Virtual Reality and Hypnosis Interventions and Assessment Modalities in Dental Anxiety Management: A Scoping Review
Year: 2026
Type: study-registration
Abstract: This registration documents a scoping review mapping virtual reality, hypnosis, and assessment modalities in dental anxiety management. The review aims to map study characteristics, patterns of virtual reality and hypnosis interventions, assessment modalities, and methodological characteristics of the available evidence. The systematic literature search was conducted on 14 July 2026, prior to the registration of this study on OSF; therefore, this registration should be considered retrospective rather than a prospective preregistration.
