“…It is a valid and reliable scale in assessing acute pain in school-age children since children with a bit of explanation efficiently and quickly understand it. In the evaluation of the scores obtained from the scale, while the values between 0 and 4 indicate mild pain, the values between 4 and 6 indicate moderate pain, the values between 6 and 8 indicate severe pain, and the values between 8 and 10 indicate unbearable pain [10].…”

Background Pain control during dental procedures is one of the most important topics related to behavior management in children. This study aims to compare the pain perception associated with a needle-free system (Comfort-In™) and the dental needle method during filling and pulpotomy treatments in children. Methods The study included teeth that required treatment (pulpotomy or filling treatment) in 56 patients aged 4 to 11 years with no systemic problems or history of allergy. Patients were randomly divided into the needle-free system group (filling treatment, n = 13; pulpotomy, n = 15) and dental needle method group (filling treatment, n = 14; pulpotomy, n = 14). For pulpotomy and filling treatment performed with 0.3 mL anesthesia, the active ingredient of which is 2% lidocaine and 1/80000 epinephrine. The patients’ behavior before the procedure was evaluated by a pediatric dentist using the Frankl Behavior Scale. The pain intensity was assessed Immediately after injection (induction), during treatment (treatment), and at the end of the treatment (post treatment) by the Wong-Baker Faces Pain Scale. Results The median (IQR-InterQuartile Range) induction pain value was 6[3-8] and 2[0-4] in dental needle method and needle-free system respectively, p < 0.001). In filling and pulpotomy treatment group, no difference between the needle and needle-free group for treatment and post-treatment pain values. Conclusions For pulpotomy and filling treatment, needle-free system performed with 0.3 mL anesthesia was found as effective as infiltrative anesthesia with a dental needle method. Trial registration ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04653974. Registered 4 December 2020 – Retrospectively registered.

“…Pain is classified as mild when it is between 0 and 4, moderate when it is between 4 and 6, severe when it is between 6 and 8, and excruciating when it is between 8 and 10. [ 7 ] Five minutes after the local anesthetic was administered, treatment was started. Following his experience with both anesthetic kinds, the patient was asked to indicate which one he preferred during the second session.…”

Children’s conduct is significantly impacted by pain during dental procedures. Children’s pain and discomfort can be reduced using computer-controlled local anesthetic delivery, which applies a steady, gradual flow of the anesthetic solution into the tissues. Using a self-report anxiety scale, the study aimed to assess and compare children’s perceptions of discomfort following a new auto-controlled injection method to a traditional local anesthetic procedure. A total of 25 children, ages 6–12 requiring the use of local anesthesia for treatment on both sides of the arch were selected. It was a split-mouth design, in which each participating child received both types of infiltrations in two separate, consecutive visits, using a metallic syringe in one session, and using the I-Ject device in the other. Before administering anesthesia, all the children’s anxiety scales were recorded using the Modified Child Dental Anxiety Faces Scale simplified to assess the anxiety level of a child. In the first appointment, Conventional anesthetic technique was and in the second appointment anesthesia was delivered using a computer-controlled device. Faces pain scaleRevised, a selfreport measure of pain was recorded immediately after completion of both types of local anesthesia (LA) administration. Patients reported greater comfort with the I-Ject computer-controlled device than with conventional anesthesia. Together with the practitioner, the computer system produced a pleasant and cozy environment for the youngster.

Introduction: Children suffer from pain due to invasive procedures. Unrelieved pain can lead to social and psychological problems. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of vibrating tourniquet and distraction cards on children’s pain, fear and anxiety levels during phlebotomy. Methods: This randomized, controlled study was carried out with 120 children included 40 children in vibrating tourniquet group, 40 children in distraction cards group and 40 children in control group in pediatric blood collection unit at a training and research hospital in Ankara. Data were collected with Child and Parent Data Collection Form, Visual Analog Scale, Child Fear Scale and Child Anxiety-State Scale. The primary outcome measure was the Visual Analog Scale for pain. Secondary outcome measure was the Child Fear Scale for fear and Child Anxiety-State Scale for anxiety. Results: After procedure pain score was significantly lower in the distraction cards group (p=0.006), whereas there was no statistically significant difference in pain scores before and during the procedure in all groups. During procedure fear score was significantly lower in the distraction card group (p=0.042). Conclusion: In this study it was concluded that the use of distraction cards was found to be effective in reducing children's pain and anxiety after the phlebotomy, and fear levels during and after the phlebotomy for the children aged between 6 and 10 years.
