Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Pain perception during injection of local anesthesia

    Wong-Baker faces pain rating scale; Scores (0-10)

    in the same visit after finishing the procedure, 0 scale - no pain , 10 scale -worest

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Heart rate during injection of local anesthesia

    in the same visit after finishing the procedure

Study Arms (2)

Controlled Flow Delivery Dentapen

EXPERIMENTAL

Controlled Flow Delivery Dentapen - infiltration upper d according to the manufacturer instructions it works with standardised 1.8 ml local anaesthetic carpules . 1)we raise the lip a little 2) we use dentapen for anaesthesia 3) class 1 cavity preparation Articaine hydrochloride 4% with 1:100,000 epinephrine will be injected.The dentist will wait 5 seconds

Device: dentapen

Traditional metal Syringes

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Traditional metal Syringes we raise the lip a little 2) infiltration upper d we use traditional syringes 3)class 1 cavity preparation with composit filling works with standardised 1.8 ml local anaesthetic carpules . we use Articaine hydrochloride 4% with 1:100,000 epinephrine will be injected.The dentist will wait 5 seconds

Device: Traditional metal Syringes

Interventions

dentapenDEVICE

Experimental: Controlled Flow Delivery Dentapen according to the manufacturer instructions, It works with standardised 1.8 mL local anaesthetic carpules. The distalingual and mesiolingual line angles are the most effective for multi-rooted upper D teeth. Articaine hydrochloride 4% with 1:100,000 epinephrine will be injected for each root as shown on a special indicator.The dentist will wait 5 seconds before needle withdrawal. Same steps will be repeated at the mesiolingual line angle

Controlled Flow Delivery Dentapen

Active Comparator: Conventional Injection of infiltration upper d a standard technique for the Injection of infiltration upper d will be used supplemented with long buccal infiltration for the buccal gingiva. A 27-gauge disposable dental needle will be used to inject Articaine hydrochloride 4% with 1:100,000 epinephrine. The needle will be directed to primary molars

Traditional metal Syringes
