Augmented reality glasses
Augmented reality glasses will be introduced to the child and he will be allowed to choose his favourite cartoon movie from this list: Rapunzel, Stitch, Ratatouille, Frozen, Minions, Zootopia, and The lion king during the first dental visit to get familiar with the AR glasses. The augmented reality is an eye goggle that will be connected to the laptop through a wire, then after playing the cartoon that will be selected by the child on the laptop the child will enjoy watching the cartoon movie through the eye goggle.
VR glasses
Children allocated to this group will be managed by Virtual reality glasses, which will be introduced to the child and he will be allowed to choose his favourite cartoon from the same list during the first dental visit to get familiar with the VR glasses. The virtual reality is a head-mounted display, the child will be asked to select his favourite cartoon on a mobile, then the mobile will be inserted in that head-mounted display
