Coronavirus disease or known as COVID-19 hugely impacted individual's psychological health and individual’s well-being worldwide. This phenomenon has an impact on maternal dental anxiety. Mothers tend to feel a higher level risk of COVID-19 transmission due to treatment while at the dentist, which might lead to avoiding dental visits. Through maternal dental anxiety, it may affect children’s oral and dental health. This behavioral phenomenon can be studied using the Health Belief Model (HBM).
The aim of this review was to analyze the influence of the mother's beliefs in determining the need to visit the dentist during a pandemic in terms of the Health Belief Model (HBM) aspect. In this review, we used The Health Belief Model because it can be used to show disease prevention programs and health promotion.   
The method that we used in this review is a narrative review. Search for articles via ResearchGate, PubMed, and Google Scholar with databases published in 2019-2023. The keywords that we used to search the article were "Health Belief Model in Mother Dental Anxiety" AND "Maternal Dental Fear and Anxiety in COVID-19" or “Toddlers Dental Anxiety in COVID-19.” Articles that we use are original research articles including full text, open access articles, and articles that discuss dental anxiety during COVID-19.
The results for this review is HBM influenced maternal dental anxiety in perceived susceptibility and severity.
In conclusion, The Influential Health Beliefs Model affects maternal dental anxiety through the perceived susceptibility and perceived severity component.
