Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, ilk kez restoratif diş hekimliği kliniğinde çalışan öğrencilerde strese sebep olan faktörlerin tespit edilmesidir. Hastalar ve Yöntem: Çalışmaya, 2017-2018 akademik yılı sırasında ilk kez restoratif diş hekimliği klinik dersini alan 39 dördüncü sınıf öğrenci dâhil edilmiştir. Öğrenciler ile, modifiye dental çevre stresi anketi ile anket düzenlenmiştir. Bulgular: Toplamda 39 öğrencinin 32’i anketi doldurmuştur. Dönüş oranı yüzde 82.1’dir. Diş hekimliği öğrencilerinde strese en çok neden olan başlıca sebepler, mezuniyet şartlarını tamamlama konusundaki endişeler %90.6 , dersten kalma veya yıl kaybetme korkusu %90.6 and hastaların randevularına geçmesi veya gelmemesi %96.9 ve bulaşıcı hastalığını belirtmen hasta tedavisi yapma %83.6 gibi hasta tedavisi ile ilgili stres kaynaklarıdır. Sonuçlar: Bu çalışmanın bulgularına göre, ilk kez restoratif diş hekimliği kliniğine başlayan öğrenciler arasında önemli oranda strese sahip olduğunu göstermektedir. Biruni Üniversitesi’nde diş hekimliği eğitiminde öğrencilerdeki stresin azaltılması için olası stratejilerin gözden geçirilmesi gerekir
