SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: the effect of oral or nasal midazolam on behaviour will be assessed during dental treatment.The length of each treatment is estimated as 30-45 minutes.

the effect of oral or nasal midazolam on behaviour will be assessed by blind observer using Houpt scale. Houpt scale measures behavior by rating overall behavior. the scale is 1 to 6, higher score mean a better behavior. 1. = Aborted, no treatment rendered. 2. = Poor, treatment interrupted, only partial treatment was completed 3= Fair, treatment interrupted but eventually completed 4= Good, difficult but all treatment was performed 5= Very good, some limited crying or movement 6= Excellent, no crying or movement
