Reviewer 2 Report

Dear Auhtors;

I think the manuscript is well written. However, minor revisions are required including:


In introduction:

The maintenance of dental anxiety is problematic since DA has been linked to a number of negative outcomes:  explain more about what negative outcomes??


In discussion:

Dental anxiety not only affects patients, it affects dentists entrusted with their care :

it should change to:   it also affects dentists ........


last paragraph of discussion:

and decreased dental utilization compared to their peers:  dental utilization should change to dental care


this sentence should be corrected : Male dentists were more likely to perceive treating anxious patients as a challenge as compared to female dentists :

 correction: needs to be change to aschallenging as......


Thank you
