Virtual Reality for Pain and Anxiety in Pediatric Dental Treatment
Effects of Immersive Virtual Reality on Pain, Anxiety, and Post-Procedural Experience in Pediatric Dental Treatment: A Randomized Controlled Trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether immersive virtual reality (VR) reduces pain and anxiety in children aged 6-12 years during routine dental procedures. The main questions it aims to answer are:
- Does VR distraction reduce self-reported pain and anxiety during dental treatment compared to standard behaviour guidance?
- Does VR distraction improve children's post-procedural experience and willingness to return for future dental visits?
Researchers will compare children using a VR headset during dental treatment to children receiving standard behaviour guidance techniques.
Participants will:
- Attend one routine dental appointment
- Be randomly assigned to wear a VR headset or receive standard care during their procedure
- Complete brief questionnaires about pain and anxiety before and after treatment
- Receive a follow-up phone call 24-72 hours after the appointment

Intervensjon / Behandling |
|---|---|
|
Eksperimentell: VR Distraction
Children wear an immersive VR headset during routine dental treatment as a non-pharmacological distraction intervention.
The VR headset provides an engaging visual and auditory environment to reduce pain and anxiety during the procedure.
|
A commercially available immersive VR headset used as a non-pharmacological distraction tool during routine pediatric dental procedures.
Children wear the headset throughout their treatment to engage with an interactive virtual environment designed to reduce pain and anxiety.
|
|
Aktiv komparator: Standard Behaviour Guidance
Children receive standard behaviour guidance techniques commonly used in pediatric dentistry, such as tell-show-do and positive reinforcement, without VR distraction.
|
Standard behaviour guidance techniques routinely used in pediatric dentistry, including tell-show-do, positive reinforcement, and distraction through verbal communication and a TV screen.
No virtual reality headset is used.

Self-Reported Pain During Dental Procedure Using Faces Pain Scale
Tidsramme: Baseline Pre-procedural and Immediately following the dental procedure (same day)
|
Child self-reported pain assessed using the Faces Pain Scale (0-10 where 10 is the maximum pain felt): The child is asked to point to the Faces picture that reflect the pain level that they are feeling.
0= Relaxed and comfortable; 2-4= Mild discomfort; 6-8= Moderate pain; 10= Severe pain or discomfort Baseline pre-procedural and immediately following the dental procedure.
