Evaluation of Different Anesthesias in Children With Molar Incisor Hypomineralization

In children with molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH), insufficient depth of anesthesia can lead to increased anxiety and behavior management problems, which may negatively affect the quality of restorations. This situation has increased the need for modern techniques and devices to minimize pain during local anesthesia. The aim of this study was to compare the effects of the SleeperOne computer-controlled local anesthesia system and the conventional local anesthesia technique on pain and anxiety in children with MIH. The null hypothesis of the study stated that there would be no statistically significant difference between the effects of the two local anesthesia methods on pain and anxiety in children with MIH.
