Sponsor's own description
The study assesses the effect of a new vibration system on pain reduction during the injection of local anesthesia. Children undergoing dental treatment are allocated to two groups; one receiving the Buzz, a vibration system and another group receiving nothing. Pain during injection of local anesthetic is assessed using a validated tool in addition to assessment of child cooperation during treatment.
