Counter-stimulation and distraction (combined) vs Conventional treatment

Self- or observational assessment of intraoperative distress/pain/acceptance of treatment during provision of LA (SEM scale, distress) · Children and adolescents having dental treatment under local anaesthetic without general anaesthesia
1 finding from 1 review

Camouflage syringe vs Conventional syringe

Self- or observational assessment of intraoperative distress/pain/acceptance of treatment during provision of LA: pain-related behaviour (crying) · Children and adolescents having dental treatment under local anaesthetic without general anaesthesia

It is very uncertain whether camouflage syringe changes self- or observational assessment of intraoperative… compared with conventional syringe (very low certainty).

Video modelling acclimatisation vs Acclimatisation in clinic (tell-show-do)

Self- or observational assessment of intraoperative distress/pain/acceptance of treatment during provision of LA: pain-related behaviour during LA (negative vs positive behaviour; Frankl Behaviour Rating Scale) · Children and adolescents having dental treatment under local anaesthetic without general anaesthesia

It is very uncertain whether video modelling acclimatisation changes self- or observational assessment of intraoperative… compared with acclimatisation in clinic (tell-show-do) (very low certainty).

Video modelling acclimatisation for LA vs Oral hygiene video

Self- or observational assessment of intraoperative distress/pain/acceptance of treatment during provision of LA: anxiety/pain experience (VAS, higher scores indicate worsened anxiety) · Children and adolescents having dental treatment under local anaesthetic without general anaesthesia

Video modelling acclimatisation for LA may leads to lower self- or observational assessment of intraoperative… compared with oral hygiene video (low certainty).
