- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Pain control during pulpectomy procedure is to be determined after administration of 4 % articaine through buccal infiltration on one side and 2% lignocaine through inferior alveolar nerve block on other side. Evaluation will take place through objective scale using the Modified Behavioural Pain Scale (MBPS) suggested by Taddio et al. This scale includes the facial expression, movement and crying. and subjective scale by WONG-BAKERâ??s Pain Scale (FPS).Timepoint: At baseline with one anesthetic agent and after 2 weeks with another anesthetic agent.
