EFFECTIVENESS OF COMPUTERIZED LOCAL ANESTHESIA IN REDUCING CHILD PAIN DURING INJECTION (A RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED CLINICAL TRIAL)
Sponsor: Pharos University in Alexandria
Summary
Pain and anxiety management during injection of local anesthesia are major challenges in pediatric dentistry. The injection of local anesthesia is often perceived by children as the most painful step , The introduction of computerized control local anesthetic delivery systems (CCLADS), such as the Star Pen device, has provided a modern approach for reducing discomfort during anesthesia. Additionally, the integrated music distraction feature enhances relaxation and cooperation during treatment.
