Brief Summary

This prospective randomizedcontrol trial would be conducted in the Department of Dentistry, AIIMS Jodhpur.All participants requiring a surgical removal of impacted tooth would beincluded in the trial. All the participants will be randomly divided into twogroups as follows:

**Group B:** They will undergo the surgical procedure with instrumentalmusic in the background.

The music will be according topatient choice with the options ranging between old Bollywood music, modernBollywood music or religious music instrumental tunes.

Patients of both the groups willsign an informed written consent to undergo the surgical removal of impactedmaxillary or mandibular teeth. After seating the patient, preoperative readingsof vitals and the S- STAI -6 scale ( Marteau and Bekker 6) foranxiety will be documented. Once the readings are noted, Music will be startedand the treatment started. All the treatment will be completed by oneclinician. During the treatment, one intraoperative reading of all vitals andanxiety scale will be done after bone cutting is completed. Afterwards, areading of vitals will be completed postoperatively. At the end the patient andthe clinician will grade the comfort of the procedure and ambience respectivelyon a 5 point Likert scale. Patients will also grade the pain perceived duringthe procedure on a 11 point Visual analogue scale (VAS).

Any medical complication likesyncope, hyperventilation etc. will be noted.

 Following parameters will benoted:

1.      Heart Rate (HR)

2.      Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP)

3.      Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP)

4.      Respiratory Rate (RR)

 The data will be documented on acase record form and relevant statistics applied.
