The study was analytical, experimental, prospective, and longitudinal. The sample consisted of 140 children, divided into 2 study groups (control group and experimental group), with 70 children in each group. Dental anxiety levels were recorded using the Facial Image Scale, and heart rate was measured using a pulse oximeter, before and after the treatment. Data analysis was conducted using IBM SPSS Statistics 22, with a p-value of < 0.01 and a confidence level of 99%. It was observed that the dental anxiety levels before and after treatment in the experimental group showed statistically significant differences (p = 0.000), which was not the case for the anxiety levels in the control group (p = 0.035). Heart rate values before and after treatment in the control group did not show statistically significant differences (p = 0.029), while in the experimental group, the values were significantly reduced (p = 0.000). The audiovisual distraction technique using video glasses was effective in controlling anxiety during dental treatment in children aged 6-9 years.
