First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 13, 2026 · Updated 28 times
Summary
This study tests whether a specially designed dental environment with softer lights and sounds can reduce anxiety, pain, and distress during dental cleanings for children aged 6 to 12 with dental fear. About 312 children will be randomly assigned to a regular dental setting or a sensory-adapted one, with some also watching a calming video beforehand. The goal is to make dental visits less stressful and more comfortable for kids.
