Comparison of injection pain with lidocaine and articaine. Comparison of the efficacy of lidocaine and articaine during treatment of MIH- maxillary molars. Design: A randomized, controlled, crossover, Triple-blinding clinical study including twenty six cooperative children, aged 6-12years old
Background and Aims: Some dentists have difficulty obtaining effective anesthesia when treating MIH molars. There are no studies comparing the effectiveness of lidocaine and articaine in MIH-maxillary molars. Design: A randomized, controlled, crossover, Triple-blinding clinical study including twenty six cooperative children , aged 6-12 years old. Each child was randomly assigned to either articaine 4% or lidocaine 2% in their first session with the second solution being used at the second session.

evaluated by outcome assessor using the Faces, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability Behavioral Pain Rating Scale ( FLACC scale ) ( a behavioral pain assessment scale which has five criteria face, legs, activity, cry, consolability ,which are each assigned a score of 0, 1 or 2.Total score of scale is summed in range 0 to 10, where: 0=relaxed and comfortable; 1-3=mild discomfort; 4-6=moderate pain; 7-10=severe pain)..
Time frame: during the injection of local anesthesia procedure
injection pain
self assessment pain by the children using Wong-Baker faces pain rating scale (a scale shows a series of faces ranging from a happy face at 0, or "no hurt", to a crying face at 10,which represents "hurts like the worst pain imaginable" )
Time frame: Immediately after the injection of local anesthesia procedure
