Dental Fear (DF), as a prevalent psychological disorder, significantly hinders patients from proactively seeking dental treatment and forms a vicious cycle with deteriorating oral health and treatment delays. Although previous studies have explored the association between personality traits and dental fear, the potential mediating mechanism of Mental Resilience (MR) in this relationship remains unclear. This study investigated 527 college students using the Active Procrastination Scale (NAPS), Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC), and Dental Fear Survey (DFS), and analyzed the mediating role of active procrastination in the impact of mental resilience on dental fear through Bootstrap testing for the mediation model. The results revealed that mental resilience not only directly negatively predicted dental fear (β = −0.207, p < 0.001) but also indirectly alleviated fear through the partial mediating role of active procrastination (indirect effect = −0.06, 95% CI [−0.104, −0.016]). Additionally, gender, academic major, and oral health status significantly predicted dental fear levels: females (p = 0.003), non-dental majors (p = 0.026), and individuals with poorer oral health status (p = 0.001) exhibited significantly higher fear levels. This study is the first to reveal the mediating mechanism through which mental resilience regulates dental fear via active procrastination strategies, providing a novel theoretical framework for clinical psychological interventions. %K 牙科恐惧, %K 心理韧性, %K 主动拖延, %K 中介模型
