Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Wong-Baker FACES Pain Rating Scale

    a method for someone to self-assess and effectively communicate the severity of pain they may be experiencing. The scale contains a series of six faces ranging from a happy face at 0 to indicate "no hurt" to a crying face at 10 to indicate "hurts"

    After local anesthesia and during pulpotomy

  • Venham's anxiety and behavioral rating scale

    assess the anxiety and uncooperative behavior of children in the dental setting.consist of five behavioral defined categories ranging from 0 to 5 with higher score, indicating greater level of anxiety or lack of cooperation.

    After local anesthesia and during pulpotomy

Study Arms (2)

classic inferior alveolar nerve block anesthesia

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Inferior alveolar nerve block (IANB) is a technique of dental anesthesia, used to produce anesthesia of the mandibular teeth, gingivae of the mandible and lower lip. The conventional IANB is the most commonly used the nerve block technique for achieving local anesthesia for mandibular surgical procedures using long needle

Device: Needleless jet injector

needleless jet injector anesthesia

EXPERIMENTAL

Jet injection technology uses mechanical energy to force a liquid drug into subcutaneous tissues without a needle using infiltration technique

Device: Needleless jet injector

Interventions

Device consist of injection pen, ampule and activator.
