Introduction: Dental anxiety significantly affects patient comfort and clinical outcomes. Painless dentistry aims to provide safe, anxiety-free dental experiences. Qur’anic recitation, which is a recording of the holy verses of the Al-Qur'an read by a qari (Qur'an reader) with a slow, tartil and harmonious tempo, in accordance with the correct rules of tajwid, is believed to have a calming effect on the patient's psychology and physiology. Aim: This systematic review examines the effectiveness of Qur’anic recitation in reducing dental anxiety and explores its psychological, physiological, and patient satisfaction outcomes. Methods: A systematic search (2011–2025) of PubMed, Scopus, Google Scholar, and Garuda was conducted using the keywords “Qur’an recitation”, “dental anxiety”, “painless dentistry”, and “spiritual intervention”. Of 161 identified studies, 50 met the inclusion criteria and were analyzed for anxiety reduction, physiological effects, and patient satisfaction. Results: Most studies showed significant anxiety reduction following Qur’anic recitation, often accompanied by decreased heart rate and blood pressure. The intervention performed comparably or better than music and other relaxation therapies. Patient satisfaction improved due to its spiritual and cultural relevance. Limitations included small sample sizes and heterogeneous methodologies. Conclusion: Qur’anic recitation is a promising, non-pharmacological adjunct for anxiety management in painless dentistry. Further large-scale randomized trials with standardized protocols are required to validate its effectiveness and clinical integration.Referensi
