NCT06510244

Brief Summary

Observational study at CDI Cleveland Dental Institute. Investigators will assess the pain perception in one group of patients using two non-invasive methods. First, a numerical rate scale (NRS) and second, a brain wave EEG.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Pain Perception Measurement by EEG.

    to observe the brain waves changes during pain perception

    January 2024-December 2024

  • Pain Perception Measurement by EEG and NRS.

    To establish a possible correlation between the NRS and EEG measurements.

    January 2024-December 2024

Study Arms (1)

One group of patients between 20-60 years old

Patients between 20-60 years old with a tooth health and no history of dental alveolar trauma or pulp chamber calcification.

Device: EEG EMOTIV

Interventions

The teeth will be dried with 2x2 gauze; then, Endo Ice will be applied. The patient response will be written on a sheet numbering to choose from 0 to 10, and at the same time, the brain waves will be recorded through EEG.

Also known as: Noninvasive Electroencephalography, Endo-Ice
