简要总结
This study aims to compare two different techniques of administering dental anesthesia to pediatric patients to determine which method causes less pain and anxiety during procedures like primary tooth extractions.
详细描述
Dental anxiety, particularly in pediatric patients, is a significant challenge, often triggered by fear of local anesthesia injections. Although local anesthesia aims to prevent pain during treatment, the injection process itself can cause anxiety and defensive behaviors, especially in children. To address this, various methods have been introduced to reduce discomfort, including topical anesthetics, slow injections, and thinner needles. However, traditional methods still face challenges in regulating injection rates, leading to the development of computer-controlled local anesthetic delivery (CCLAD) systems.
CCLAD, particularly intraosseous anesthesia systems like SleeperOne™, offer a controlled flow rate and pressure during anesthesia delivery, potentially reducing discomfort and anxiety. Despite numerous studies, results on the effectiveness of CCLAD in pediatric patients remain controversial. This study aims to bridge this gap by comparing the efficacy of computerized intraosseous anesthesia with conventional infiltration anesthesia in pediatric patients undergoing primary molar extraction. The goal is to assess pain perception and anxiety levels, with the hypothesis that intraosseous anesthesia may lead to better outcomes in terms of pain and anxiety reduction compared to conventional techniques.
The use of the SleeperOne™ device for intraosseous anesthesia is hypothesized to be more effective in reducing pain and anxiety compared to conventional infiltration techniques during the extraction of primary molars in children.

研究组 & 干预措施
FIRST Computerized Intraosseous Anesthesia (CCIA), SECOND Traditional Infiltration Anesthesia (TIA)
In this randomized split-mouth crossover design, participants underwent two appointments for bilateral upper primary molar extractions. In this arm, at the first visit, computerized intraosseous anesthesia (CCIA) was administered using the SleeperOne™ system with a 30 G × 9 mm Effitec needle and 2% articaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine, followed by tooth extraction. At the second visit, conventional buccal infiltration anesthesia (TIA) was performed using a standard dental syringe and a 27-gauge needle on the contralateral molar, using the same anesthetic solution.

FIRST Traditional Infiltration Anesthesia (TIA), SECOND (CCIA)
In this randomized split-mouth crossover design, participants underwent two appointments for bilateral upper primary molar extractions. In this arm, at the first visit, conventional buccal infiltration anesthesia (TIA) was administered using a standard dental syringe and a 27-gauge needle, along with 2% articaine containing 1:100,000 epinephrine. At the second visit, computerized intraosseous anesthesia (CCIA) was delivered using the SleeperOne™ system with a 30 G × 9 mm Effitec needle, followed by extraction of the contralateral molar using the same anesthetic solution.

结局指标
主要结局
Pain Perception - Visual Analogue Scale
时间窗: During anesthesia and during extraction in each visit.
Pain was assessed using a 10-centimeter Visual Analog Scale (VAS), ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst imaginable pain). Higher scores indicate worse pain.
Pain Perception - Wong-Baker Faces Pain Rating Scale
时间窗: During anesthesia and during extraction in each visit.
Pain was assessed using the Wong-Baker Faces Pain Rating Scale (WBPRS), which ranges from 0 (no hurt) to 10 (hurts worst). Higher scores indicate worse pain.
Dental Anxiety - State-Trait Anxiety Inventory for Children - State Subscale
时间窗: At baseline, after anesthesia and after extraction in each visit.
Dental anxiety was assessed using the short form of the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory for Children - State Subscale (STAI-S). Scores range from 10 (low anxiety) to 40 (high anxiety).
