Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Virtual Reality Glasses (VR)
Virtual Reality Glasses (VR)
Children allocated to this group will be distracted using VR glasses during dental treatment which is an individual headset that has earphones incorporated. Age-appropriate cartoons and movies will be shown to the children. The VR glasses will be then introduced to the children. The children will be given time to accommodate with the device before starting the procedure. The VR glasses will be applied during the dental examination and treatment.
White noise
White noise
Wireless kids' headphones will be introduced to the children allocated to this group. They will be given some time to accommodate with the headphones. Then, the white noise will be played and children will be asked to concentrate on the music during the procedure.
White noise stimulus will be set at 70 decibels, within the "normal conversation" volume range and below what is considered harmful to hearing. The white noise of rain sound, managed with an iPhone application called Muse. The decibel level of white noise will be calibrated using a portable digital sound level meter
Basic behavior management techniques
Basic behavior management techniques
Children allocated to this group will be managed by the basic behavior guidance techniques: (Tell-Show-Do). No adjunctive distraction tool will be used.
