Summary

This study tests whether a specially prepared (buffered) numbing shot works better than the standard shot to reduce pain and anxiety in children aged 6 to 12 who need a tooth filling or root canal for an infected baby tooth. Researchers will measure pain using a behavior scale, heart rate, and skin signals during the procedure. The goal is to make dental visits more comfortable for kids.
