After sitting the child on the unit (one minute before injection) 2. 10 seconds after local anesthetic injection 3. During the pulp exposure. Method of measurement: To test the heart rate, the digital electronical device OXY300 (Microlife AG, Widnau, Switzerland) will be used by placing the probe on the child's left hand finger.;Face pain rating. Timepoint: After injection of anesthesia. Method of measurement: The subjective evaluation of pain is performed by the FPR scale after the injection of an anesthesia drug, which is recorded by the child using its scoring image, and determined score by the next session in the presence of another gauge are compared.;Evaluation of pain by eye, movement and sound (SEM). Timepoint: During injection of anesthesia.
