Buffered Versus Conventional Local Anesthesia for Pain and Anxiety Reduction in School-Aged Children With Pulpitis

The objective of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether buffered local anesthesia is more effective than conventional local anesthesia in reducing pain responses in school-aged children requiring dental treatment for pulpitis. The study will also assess differences in physiological and self-reported indicators of pain and anxiety, as well as anesthetic onset and duration. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does buffered local anesthesia reduce behavioral pain scores measured by the FLACC scale compared to conventional local anesthesia? Does buffered local anesthesia improve physiological and psychometric indicators of pain and anxiety during dental procedures? Methodology: The researchers will compare buffered local anesthesia with conventional local anesthesia during routine dental treatment procedures such as pulpotomy or pulpectomy in primary molars. Participants will: Receive either buffered or conventional local anesthesia during dental treatment Undergo pulpotomy or pulpectomy depending on clinical diagnosis Be monitored for pain and anxiety using FLACC scale, heart rate, skin conductance, and Wong-Baker Faces Pain Scale at different stages of treatment Have the onset and duration of anesthesia recorded during and after the procedure Be followed until recovery of soft tissue sensation after treatment
