Brief summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if Turkish classical music, patient-selected music, and silence have an effect on psychological and physiological anxiety indicators during orthodontic bracket placement. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does Turkish classical music reduce anxiety levels in orthodontic patients undergoing bracket placement? Does patient-selected music reduce anxiety levels in orthodontic patients undergoing bracket placement? Researchers will compare two different music genres to a control (no music, silence) to see if music therapy works to lower anxiety. Participants will: Listen to Turkish classical music or patient-selected music or silence during orthodontic bracket application and complete 2 scales before and after the intervention.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change in Anxiety Levels Measured by the Abeer Children Dental Anxiety Scale (ACDAS) | Baseline (before bracket placement) and immediately after bracket placement (within 30 minutes after the intervention) | The Abeer Children Dental Anxiety Scale (ACDAS) measures dental anxiety in children and adolescents. Scores range from 13 to 39, with higher scores indicating higher anxiety. |
| Change in State Anxiety Measured by the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory - State Form (STAI-S) | Baseline (before bracket placement) and immediately after bracket placement (within 30 minutes after the intervention) | The State-Trait Anxiety Inventory State Form (STAI-S) assesses temporary state anxiety levels. Scores range from 20 to 80, with higher scores indicating higher anxiety. |
| Physiological Anxiety Indicators (Heart Rate, Blood Pressure, Body Temperature, Oxygen Saturation) | Baseline (before bracket placement) and immediately after bracket placement (within 30 minutes after the intervention) | Changes in heart rate (beats per minute), blood pressure (mmHg), body temperature (degrees celcius) and oxygen saturation (%) will be recorded as indicators of physiological anxiety. |
