Study Overview

Brief Summary

Background: Effective pain control is crucial in managing pediatric dental patients. Molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH), marked by enamel defects and dentin hypersensitivity, often hinders effective local anesthesia. Traditional injection methods may fall short, causing discomfort and complicating treatment. Combining infiltration with intraosseous injection using an extra-short 31-G needle may offer a more effective alternative.

Purpose: To compare the effectiveness of combined infiltration and intraosseous injection with an extra-short 31-G needle versus conventional techniques in eliminating pain during

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Change in objective pain reaction

Time Frame: throughout the procedure

Pain response will be assessed using Face, Legs, Activity, Cry Consolability (FLACC) scale The scale has five criteria, each assigned a score of 0, 1 or 2 (zero means no pain and 2 means severe pain). The total score scale is scored in a range of 0-10 with 0 representing no pain

Change in subjective pain scores

Time Frame: throughout the procedure

It will be done by the child using Wong-Baker Faces Pain Rating Scale that ranged from 0 to 5. zero means no pain and 5 means pain is severe

Secondary Outcomes

  • change in child anxiety(throughout the procedure)
  • Local anesthesia efficacy(throughout the procedure)
