Filter by:The purpose of this research study is to compare responses in children during dental injections of local anesthetic (used for numbing), while children are under deep sedation (breathing on their own, often with a loss of consciousness). Two types of local anesthetic will be used--one will be buffered (by adding a salt solution to make it less acidic), while the other will be plain, without anything added. Previous studies have shown that the addition of the buffer solution can improve comfort during a dental injection.
the objective of this study is to evaluate the ability of olfaction in obtaining positive emotional and behavioral responses toward dental anxiety and pain in patients undergoing different dental procedures.
Objectives: Our study aimed to perform a Turkish validation study of the Child Drawing: Hospital (CD:H) Scale and evaluate the dental anxiety and pain experienced during the treatment by drawing. Study Design: Pediatric patients between the ages of 4-13 who applied to the Pediatric Dentistry Department between 2018-2020 were included in the study. Following the translation of the CD:H Scale into Turkish and linguistic-cultural validation, the behaviors of pediatric patients during treatment were evaluated with the Frankl Behavior Rating Scale, the pain they experienced during treatment with the Wong- Baker Face Rating Scale, and their anxiety levels were evaluated with the pictures drawn by the patients at the end of the treatment. The data were analyzed with Statistical Package for the Social Sciences v23, and the significance level was taken as p <0.05. Results: Within the scope of the scale's reliability-validity study, the Intra-Class Correlation Coefficient (ICC) was evaluated with test-retest consistency. For section A,B,C and total score reliability was found to be positive and strong level correlation. Dental anxiety of boys was higher than girls. Conclusions: The Turkish version of the CD:H Scale is a reliable and valid scale that can be used to evaluate the dental anxiety of Turkish pediatric patients.
To describe and understand the self-medication behaviours of a population of adults coming to the Clermont-Ferrand dentistry department for acute pain of pulpal origin and of a population of adults coming to the specific care unit of the Clermont-Ferrand dentistry department or the Riom hospital for treatment under general anaesthesia.
The aim of the present study was to compare the effectiveness of chemo-mechanical caries removal using Papacarie-Duo and Atraumatic Restorative Treatment (ART) in reducing dental pain in pregnant women.
Patients with symptomatic teeth who applied endodontic clinic between April 2019 and December 2019 for root canal treatment were enrolled in this study. All patients were asked to fill four different rating scales: numerical rating scale, visual analogue scale, color analogue scale and faces rating scale for their relevant tooth which is symptomatic and need of root canal treatment. The four scales were then compared statistically.
To assess the safety, tolerability, analgesic, efficacy and pharmacokinetics of high dose acetaminophen relative to placebo and low dose acetaminophen relative to placebo over a 24 hour period in patient experiencing moderate to severe pain following the surgical removal of third molar.
- Accessing the efficacy and safety of pregabalin when used alone and in combo with acetaminophen in a dental pain model. - To test whether pre-operative dose of pregabalin increases the time to significant post-operative pain (NRS ≥ 5), and hence time to first analgesia consumed post-operatively.
Objectives of this Phase I pilot trial are to provide data towards assessing and facilitating feasibility of a larger scale Phase II trial in which the effects of a calmative Comfort Talk® app can be unequivocally evaluated. Towards this goal we will pursue following outcome parameters for Phase I: Feasibility/acceptability assessment: Primary outcome parameter: • ability to obtain complete on-site data sets from at least 90% of patients enrolled (with at least 40% from patients in the app group and at least 40% from patients in the control group). Secondary outcome parameters: - ability to enroll 60 patients by day 150 after initiation of recruitment in the clinic (=day 1) - obtain 38 packages of filled out diary cards (at least 16 from patients in the app group and at least 16 from patients in the control group) - 90% of patients in app group listen to app ≥5 min Phase II preparation primary outcome parameter • anxiety at the end of the waiting room time Secondary outcome parameters - pain the end of the waiting room time - anxiety during treatment - pain during treatment - anxiety during 1 week after treatment - pain during 1 week after treatment - use of units of sedatives and analgesics during 1 week after treatment (assessed by prescription at end of the visit) - patient satisfaction
The study will be completed as a two part, prospective, single-centre, randomised controlled trial. Five volunteers (dentists) will be recruited in the first part of the study to evaluate and examine the microneedle device and its use. Based on those qualitative findings (individual interviews and focus group) modifications to the microneedle device will be implemented before part two of the study commences. Twenty volunteers will be enrolled in the second part of the study. A split mouth design will be used to compare the efficacy of an array of 2x3 pyramidal wet-etch silicone microneedles of 280µm height with a standard 30-gauge short hypodermic needle in the delivery of local dental anaesthetic solution. Quantitative and qualitative measurements of the pain experienced and the depth of anaesthesia achieved will be recorded and compared.
