Pain and Anxiety Evaluation in Children Using Different Techniques of Local Anesthesia for Dental Treatment
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Fear and dental anxiety are often associated with the use of needles and syringes for local anesthesia, and painful perception during the administration of local anesthetics is often the main reason for anxiety behaviors and defensive reactions. Dental trauma originates in childhood, through experience misconduct. The objective of this study is to evaluate the pain and anxiety related to 4 different modalities of anesthesia in children. Will be selected volunteers aged between 5 and 12 years who need restorative dental treatment in posterior teeth in the upper 2 quadrants. All patients will receive 1 modality of anesthesia: conventional anesthesia (control group), computerized anesthesia, Dental Vibe anesthesia and computerized anesthesia + DentalVibe anesthesia. Evaluations will be made with physiological and behavioral criteria. For the physiological evaluation will be measured the blood pressure, respiratory rate, heart rate, oximetry and salivary cortisol before and during each anesthesia. As criteria for evaluation of anxiety will be applied the methods, Corah and modified VPT before anesthesia and modified VPT will be repeated after anesthesia. The pain will be assessed at the end of each anesthesia with Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and Wong Baker Faces. The results will be submitted to parametric and non-parametric statistical analysis, according to the data obtained in the different evaluation criteria.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Self-perception of pain [Immediately after anesthesia]
The pain will be analyzed by the Wong Baker Faces scales
- Pain Behavior [During the anesthetic procedure]
The pain will be analyzed by the FLACC
- Self-perception of pain [Immediately after anesthesia]
The pain will be analyzed by the Visual Analogue Scale (0-10). 0- no pain, 10- severe pain
Secondary Outcome Measures
- SCARED Questionnaire [Before anesthesia]
Children will be evaluated for the anxiety behavior prior to any anesthesia by answering the SCARED questionnaire
- Corah Questionnaire [Before anethesia]
Children will be evaluated for the dentistry anxiety prior to any anesthesia
- VPT modified [Before anethesia and immediately after anesthesia]
Children will be evaluated for the anxiety after to any anesthesia
- Blood pressure [Immediately before anesthesia, during anesthesia]
The physiological response of anxiety to local dental anesthesia will be evaluated by parameters of blood pressure
- Respiratory rate [Immediately before anesthesia, during anesthesia]
The physiological response of anxiety to local dental anesthesia will be evaluated by parameters of respiratory rate
- Heart rate [Immediately before anesthesia, during anesthesia]
The physiological response of anxiety to local dental anesthesia will be evaluated by parameters of heart rate
- Oxygen saturation [Immediately before anesthesia, during anesthesia]
The physiological response of anxiety to local dental anesthesia will be evaluated by parameters of oxygen saturation
- Salivary cortisol [Immediately before anesthesia, during anesthesia]
The physiological response of anxiety to local dental anesthesia will be evaluated by parameters of salivary cortisol
