    Abstract Background Oral benzodiazepines (OBZs) can facilitate treatment of dentally anxious patients and are widely used in countries such as Australia and the United States. Dentists in the UK prescribe them much less often.Aims To examine OBZ prescribing by dentists in the UK, including patterns of practice, barriers to use, and alternative anxiety management strategies.Methods An online mixed-methods survey was conducted utilising Qualtrics. Participants were recruited via the private Facebook group 'For Dentists, By Dentists' during April to June 2021. Quantitative data were analysed with descriptive statistics and qualitative data with thematic analysis.Results In total, 235 dentists participated, with 91% being general dentists. Half had previously prescribed OBZs, with 36% doing so in the last year. Only 18% were confident in their use. Diazepam was the anxiolytic preferred by respondents. Two-thirds of dentists who had never prescribed anxiolytics were interested in doing so in the future. Concerns about managing anxious patients with OBZs included: inadequate training; confusion about guidelines; medico-legal risk; and issues of general practitioners prescribing anxiolytics to dental patients unbeknown to their dentist.Conclusions A lack of confidence prescribing OBZs for anxiolysis exists among UK dentists. Guidelines should be clarified, and training provided.

    Abstract Introduction: Benzodiazepines contribute to substance use disorder and are often part of polydrug abuse, most frequently with opioids. Although dental opioid prescribing differs significantly between countries, little is known about the patterns of dental benzodiazepine prescribing. The aim of this study is to compare dental prescribing of benzodiazepines among the U.S., England, and Australia in 2013-2018.
    Methods: Population-level data were accessed from national data sets for each country for dental benzodiazepine prescriptions. Outcome measures of dental benzodiazepine prescribing included: (1) prescribing rates by population for each year and (2) the quantity and relative proportion of benzodiazepines by type for each country. The analysis was conducted in 2020.
    Results: Between 2013 and 2018, U.S. dentists prescribed 23 times more than English dentists and 7 times more than Australian dentists by population. During the study period, the rate of dental benzodiazepine prescribing decreased in England and the U.S. but increased in Australia. Despite these trends, U.S. dental prescribing rates remained 28 times more than English dentists and 6 times more than Australian dentists in 2018 (U.S., 3.10 prescriptions/1,000 population; England, 0.11 prescriptions/1,000 population; Australia, 0.50 prescriptions/1,000 population). U.S. dentists prescribed a wider variety of benzodiazepines than English and Australian dentists. Diazepam was most commonly prescribed in all countries. In the U.S., triazolam, lorazepam, and alprazolam were next most commonly prescribed. Temazepam was next most frequent in England and Australia.
    Conclusions: Significant variation in benzodiazepine prescribing rates and types were seen among the countries. To improve patient safety, further investigation into the appropriate use and choices of benzodiazepines in dentistry is needed.
