Objective To systematically analyse the conceptual connotation of dental anxiety(DA)in adults,clarify its attributes,antecedents and consequences,thereby providing a theoretical basis for developing targeted intervention strategies and assessment tools,and improving oral health of patients. Methods Systematic searches were conducted on following databases from the inception to 1st October,2025:CNKI,Wanfang Data,VIP,SinoMed,PubMed,Web of Science,ScienceDirect,and the Cochrane Library. Rodgers’evolutionary concept analysis was used for analysis. Results A total of 36 articles were included. Adult DA encompassed five defined attributes:emotional responses,avoidance behaviours,physiological responses,negative cognition and perceived loss of control. Antecedents involved in traumatic experiences,individual susceptibility,dentist-patient relationship and social factors. Consequences included deterioration of oral health,increased financial burden,diminished quality of life and intergenerational transmission. Conclusion Adult DA is a complex syndrome that requires psychological,physiological and behavioural interventions. Future efforts should optimise assessment tools,develop non-pharmacological strategies by integrating cognitive-behavioural therapy dog assisted interventions,and incorporate DA prevention and control into the national oral health policy.
