Summary
This study tested whether using virtual reality (VR) goggles during dental treatment could help children aged 11-15 with mild intellectual disability feel less anxious. Fifty-six children with moderate dental anxiety took part. The VR approach was compared to watching a regular monitor. The goal was to see if more children could complete their dental procedure calmly and within 50 minutes.
