Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
This study applied the gate control theory of pain modulation to determine whether large A-beta nerve fiber input from a vibration stimulus would inhibit smaller fiber A-delta and C fiber (nociceptive) input from an intraoral infiltration injection. We expect that the amount of discomfort experienced with the use of the Dental Vibe injection comfort system during intra-oral injections would be less than traditional intra-oralinjections of local anesthetics in the adolescent patient.Timepoint: IT WILL BE ASSESSED ON WEEKLY BASIS ACCORDING TO THE CASES DONE THAT PARTICULAR WEEK	—
