Objectives: To evaluate the clinical pain during local anesthetic injection using such intra-oral device.
Study Design: A comparative split-mouth clinical study to evaluate clinical pain was conducted among the subjects
who required bilateral local anesthetic intra-oral injections.
Results: A total of 99 subjects participated in the study out of which 39 were female. A total of 256 local anesthetic
injections were administered to all the subjects with at least one pair of similar local anesthetic injections. Comparison of mean VAS score for anticipated pain in without vibration group was significantly higher in all types of
nerve blocks when compared to that of with vibration. Similarly, the comparison of mean VAS score for actual
pain in without vibration group was significantly higher in all types of nerve blocks when compared to that of with
vibration. No significant difference in the mean VAS score was seen between anticipated and actual pain in without
vibration group with respect to inferior alveolar (
p
=0.673), infra-orbital (
p
=0.175) and palatal (
p
=0.343) local anesthetic injections. The mean VAS score was significantly lower for actual pain when compared to anticipated pain in
vibration group with respect to inferior alveolar (
p
<0.001) and infra-orbital (
p
=0.002) local anesthetic injections.
Conclusions: There was significant reduction in the pain encountered during local anesthetic injection with the use
of intra-oral vibration device.
