It is crucial for dental practitioners to assess patients\u2019 anxiety levels for quality care and post-operative recovery. The study aimed to compare patient perceptions of pain, anxiety, stress levels and satisfaction with clinical outcomes in surgical extractions of impacted mandibular third molars, using the Visual Analogue Scale and Amsterdam Pre-operative Anxiety and Information Scale.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods and Materials:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This prospective, clinical, comparative study was performed from June 2017 to February 2020.
