Sponsor's own description
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of two different distraction techniques (Audio Video Distraction /Video Game Distraction) in the management of anxious pediatric patients during dental treatment. Group A: pulpotomy in temporary inferior molar will be treated with using video game on tablet device with wireless joystick and wireless headphone Group B: pulpotomy in temporary inferior molar will be treated with using AV tablet and wireless headphone. Group C (Control group): pulpotomy in temporary inferior molar will be treated with basic behavior guidance techniques and without using any type of distraction aids. All of the children who experienced a pulpotomy in temporary inferior molar with/without distraction will be assessed by using a combination of measures: Simplified Wong-Baker faces(self-report), and "HOUPT" Behavior Rating Scale for Movement - Crying - Overall Behavior (nonself-report).
