Clinical Trial Description

A total of 224 children aged 5-8 years who needed at least two restorative dental treatment of the mandibular first primary molar were included in the study. In each sessions the Wong-Baker FACES Pain Rating Scale (W-BFRS) was used to evaluate the dental anxiety before and after the treatment. The Modified Corah's Dental Anxiety Scale (MDAS) was used as a dental anxiety measurement method. A portable finger pulse oximeter (Nellcorâ„¢ PMN10, Medtronic Corp. MN, USA) was used to measure the heart rate. Data were statistically analyzed with the help of the Statistical Package for Social Sciences statistical software (SPSS 18.0), considering a 5% significance level. Nonparametric tests were used. Normality assumption was evaluated with the Kolmogorov Smirnov test. The association between two groups was analyzed by Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. ;
