Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Reading percentage of EPT number 64/64. Timepoint: Immediately after performing all infiltrations, a timer will be used to measure the elapsed time of the anesthetic injection. Then, the EPT device is used every three minutes for 60 minutes, starting from minute one, to evaluate the level of pulp numbness. Every three minutes, the opposite maxillary canine was also tested to confirm that the participants were responding correctly. Method of measurement: Electric pulp tester (EPT).;Pain score at different stages of injection by visual analog scale. Timepoint: A 170mm Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) Heft parker 170 will be used to assess participants' pain during insertion, placement, solution deposition, real and mock infiltration anesthesia. Method of measurement: Visual Analogue Scale.	—
