盲法说明
The randomization will be performed according to patients' sequences where all odd numbers of patients will be incorporated into control group, while even numbers will be included in lavender group. The patients will not be informed about the type of the essential oil. T This was achieved by inserting lavender vaporizers in all setting rooms and clinics. So that the patients will believe that there is no extraordinary maneuver in the clinics. Also, all the dentists who treated the patients and evaluators who will interview the patients and questionnaires, will not be informed of the type of the essential oil which will be used. The statistician who will analyze the questionnaires will be informed that the study's groups are named as group A or B.
