Overview

Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to assess pain perception, child stress level and compare the effectiveness between periodontal ligament anesthesia using Computer-controlled Local Anesthetic delivery system and the Conventional Inferior Alveolar Nerve Block during extraction of the primary molars.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

Is there a difference in pain perception, child stress level and anesthesia effectiveness between the CC-ILA system and the traditional syringe when administering IANB in pediatric patients undergoing primary molar extractions.

Researchers will compare CC-ILA system to traditional syringe when administering IANB to see if there a difference in pain perception, child stress level and anesthesia effectiveness.

Participants will:

Have their lower first primary molar extracted by receiving either periodontal ligament anesthesia using computer-controlled local anesthetic delivery system or the conventional inferior alveolar nerve bock.

Pain perception during the anesthesia process was measured using both objective criteria through the Sound-Eye-Motor scale and subjective assessment using Wong-Baker Faces Pain Rating Scale. Salivary cortisol level will be used to determine child stress level. The efficacy of anesthesia at various stages of the extraction procedure was evaluated using the Sound-Eye-Motor scale.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Healthy children (ASA I).
  • Ranging in age from 5-
  • Cooperative (Frankle ++).
  • With mandibular first primary molars earmarked for removal owing to factors such as: extensive caries, crown damage, periapical lesions and unsuccessful pulp treatment.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Mobile teeth (Grade III).
  • Ankylosed teeth.
  • Teeth with root resorption (more than 1\\3).
  • Patients with facial cellulitis and when there is a need for supplemental anesthesia

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Pain

Time Frame: Immediately after receiving anesthesia

Sound eye motor scale An observational scale uses child sound, eye and body movement to reflect on child comfort where score 1 reflect "comfort" and score 4 reflect "pain"

Stress level

Time Frame: Before and after local anesthesia delivery

Child stress level after receiving either of anesthesia will be determined using salivary cortisol which will be collected by cortisol ELISA kit

Effectiveness

Time Frame: Through dental procedure

Sound eye motor scale An observational scale uses child sound, eye and body movement to reflect on child comfort where score 1 reflect "comfort" and score 4 reflect "pain"
