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

Counter-stimulation or distraction vs Conventional treatment

Adverse effects: pain on injection (solution deposition), Heft-Parker VAS 0-170 mm · Children and adolescents having dental treatment under local anaesthetic without general anaesthesia

Counter-stimulation or distraction led to lower pain on injection (Wong-Baker Faces / TPPPS / FPS-R, after LA) compared with conventional treatment; GRADE not reported.

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).
