ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking at how well two different methods of numbing the mouth work for children with a condition called molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH). MIH can make teeth sensitive and more prone to decay. The researchers want to find out if a technique called intraosseous anesthesia, which injects numbing medicine directly into the bone around the tooth, is more effective at controlling pain during dental work compared to the more commonly used inferior alveolar block anesthesia.

To participate, children aged 6 to 8 who are healthy and have at least one affected lower first molar may be eligible. They should have a specific level of dental need and be able to cooperate during treatment. This trial is currently recruiting participants at the Department of Pedodontics at Istanbul University Faculty of Dentistry. If your child qualifies and joins the study, they can expect to receive one of the two types of anesthesia during their dental treatment, and their pain levels will be monitored to see which method works better.
