Summary
This study compares two methods of numbing the lower back teeth in children who need emergency dental treatment. One method is a standard injection near the jaw nerve, and the other uses a computer-controlled device to deliver numbing medicine directly into the tooth area. Researchers will measure pain and stress levels to see which method works better and is more comfortable for kids.
