Assessment of Pain and Anxiety During Infiltration Anesthesia Using Dental Anesthesia Injector Versus Conventional Syringe in Pediatric Patients

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


Sponsor

Ain Shams University

Enrollment

40 participants

Start Date

Jan 25, 2024

Study Type

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.

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study is testing whether a special computer-controlled dental injection device causes less pain and anxiety in children getting their first dental numbing shot compared to a traditional syringe. **You may be eligible if...** - Your child is generally healthy (no significant medical conditions) - This is your child's first time getting a dental numbing injection - Your child has at least one decayed upper baby molar on each side that needs a pulpotomy (a baby tooth root canal) - Your child shows mild to moderate dental anxiety (Frankl scale score 3 or 4) **You may NOT be eligible if...** - Your child has gum disease, a dental abscess, or facial injury - Your child took a painkiller within 48 hours before the study - Your child is allergic to local anesthetics (numbing medicine) Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
