Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Administration of warm local anaesthetic solution on pre-cooled injection sites may create reduction in pain perception and may provide better anesthesia in children when compared to conventional local anaesthetic technique during inferior alveolar nerve block anesthesia Timepoint: Immediately after administration of local anesthesia | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Administration of warm local anaesthetic solution on pre-cooled injection sites may provide less adverse effects and hemodynamic changes when compared to conventional local anesthetic techniqueTimepoint: Hemodynamic changes will be evaluated immediately at the time of administration of local anesthesia and adverse effects will be evaluated after 24 hours | — |
