NCT ID NCT07524569

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 25, 2026

Summary

This study compares two numbing techniques for dental work in children aged 6 to 12: a computer-controlled injection into the jawbone (digital intraosseous) and a manual injection into the ligament around the tooth. Researchers will measure pain, heart rate, and how well the numbing works. The goal is to find which method causes less discomfort and is preferred by kids.
