A Randomized Clinical Trial to Assess Pain and Anxiety During Infiltration Anesthesia Using Dental Anesthesia Injector Versus Conventional Syringe in Pediatric Patients
Ain Shams University
40 participants

INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
This randomized controlled trial is conducted on pediatric dental patients to compare the effectiveness of local anesthesia administered using a dental anesthesia injector device versus the traditional syringe method. The study aims to assess and compare pain and anxiety levels associated with both methods, using both subjective (self-reported) and objective measures. The goal is to identify an alternative technique that minimizes pain and anxiety in pediatric dental patients.
