The Impact of Valerian and Chamomile on Children's Anxiety in the Dental Clinic

This randomized controlled clinical trial aims to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of chamomile extract and valerian extract in reducing dental anxiety in healthy pediatric patients aged 6 to 10 years undergoing tooth extraction. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive one of the herbal interventions or a placebo prior to extraction. Dental anxiety will be assessed using validated anxiety rating scales and physiological parameters. This study seeks to explore a safe, easy to apply, and effective approach to manage child behavior and reduce dental anxiety.
