Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
For both groups:
1. Taking personal data, medical and dental history.
2. Diagnosis and determination of the required treatment.
3. Measuring preoperative anxiety (expressed by heart rate) using a pulse oximeter.
4. Using the behavior guidance technique:
Intervention group: The Child is introduced to the virtual reality glasses device, and was given instructions on how to use it and was allowed to choose one of previously chosen cartoons to be played during the procedure.
Control group: The child is introduced to the headphones and was given instructions on how to use it, and a relaxing music is played during the procedure.
5. Administration of topical anesthesia.
6. Administration of local anesthesia.
7. Check the effectiveness of local anesthesia using dental probe.
8. Extraction of the affected tooth.
9. Measuring postoperative anxiety (expressed by heart rate) using the pulse oximeter.
10. Evaluate the objective pain using Face, Legs, Cry, Consolabiliy scale .
11. Self-reporting of subjective pain using Visual analogue scale.
12. Post extraction instructions are given to the patient.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
audiovisual distraction
virtual reality glasses
a system composed of a head-mounted wide view display placed in front of the eyes and headphones placed in ears, it has the ability to block the real-world stimuli. This could distract the patient from the dental environment, which helps reduce anxiety
audiodistraction
music
Music can be used to distract patients from the anxiety provoking stimulus. It helps the patient to escape from the stressful reality as it activates imaginary. Psychosocially music can offer peace and comfort to patients during dental treatment as it helps in making the environment less threatening.
