Abstract :
This study revealed that despite of the year of study, the most common stressful factor for considerable percentage of the students regardless of the gender was the fear of unemployment and insecurity concerning the professional future. There are a number of studies that were conducted in the past which concluded that the apprehensions regarding examinations and grades, fear of failing course, learning environment and criticism about the work were the most common stress creators for the dental undergraduates. In contrast to those studies, pushing all those factors to a corner, this study reflected the present social scenario of unemployment and future insecurity, being the most stressful factor even for the dental students.
