简要总结

This study investigates whether weighted blankets, which provide calming deep pressure sensations, can reduce dental anxiety in children during local anaesthesia injections. Twenty children aged 6 to 10 years will be randomly assigned to receive anaesthesia with or without a weighted blanket. Anxiety will be measured using a child-friendly questionnaire (MCDAS) and heart-rate monitoring at five stages of the injection. The study aims to develop a safe, non-drug, child-friendly method to make dental visits more comfortable and reduce the fear of needles.
