Brief summary
In this study, the investigators aimed to compare the effects of topical anesthetic materials and cold application on pain perception. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is cold application is effective as a topical anesthetic replacement? * Is there a difference on pain perception between cold and room temperature topical anesthetic? The treatment contains of participants selected from a group of patients who requires dental treatment. The mission of the participants is to answer the questionnaires correctly and cooperate the treatment. Participants will be divided into 4 groups containing 25 child per group: * First group: topical anesthetic spray solution. * Second group: topical anesthetic gel * Third group: Cryotherapy as distilled water * Fourth group: Cryotherapy as topical anesthetic spray solution. All participants will answer questionnaire of pain, anxiety and taste. The oxygen saturation and pulses will be measured with a pulse-oxymeter device to be recorded.
Interventions
Using crytotherapy as topical anesthetic
Comparing the two versions (the room temperature and + 4°C) of the gold standard of local anesthetics, the solution, which contains lidocaine.
