Protocol summary

Study aim
Evaluation of the effect of 940 nm low power diode laser on pain reduction
Design
A clinical trial study with two parallel, single blind, randomized groups randomization technique: Covariate adaptive randomization with 30 patients.
Settings and conduct
This study will take place at Arak Dental School Clinic. Each patient will be treated by both techniques,topical lidocaine anesthesia gel with laser on one side and topical anesthesia gel alone in the other side.This protocol will be performed for the other half of the participants in reverse.Each patient will have different control and intervention sides the next session. On the control side,on the buccal mucosa of the maxillary canine , topical benzocaine anesthesia will be applied for one minute.Then a short needle (gauge 27) is used by the dentist for injection. On the test side,on buccal mucosa of the canine, anesthetic gel was applied for one minute and then laser irradiation at 940 nm was applied for one minute. Blindness: Patients are not aware of the type of anesthesia and on which side it will be performed.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
The volunteers for performing bilateral maxillary canine anesthesia with a range of 20-27 years
Intervention groups
Maxillary canine anesthesia is performed bilaterally on one side with laser prophylaxis and on the other side without laser prophylaxis. In the other group, the same actions will be done in reverse order.
Main outcome variables
The outcome of both studies will be the degree of pain perception after the injection. Evaluation criteria for measuring pain in patients included:  A) Physiological criteria of pain and stress B) Subjective pain criterion, which is the Faces Pain Rating Scale. C) Objective Pain Criterion (SEM). D) VAS (visual analogue scale)

Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
Randomization is simple and individual. Randomization technique: covariate adaptive randomization
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Single blinded
Blinding description
Patients are unaware of which side of the mouth is under laser prophylaxis.When using diode laser we also put the device in silent mode.The light is also not visible due to the direct contact of the laser probe with the mucosal surface.

Intervention groups

Description
Intervention group: This study will be done by split mouth method. The purpose of split mouth study is to eliminate all variables related to different individuals. In Split Mouth method, buccal injection will be done on both sides of maxilla, so that injection will be done in two sessions separately, once in control side and once in test side. The priming of the injection and determination of the experimental and control side will be randomly selected by Covariate adaptive randomization. Both techniques are used for each patient, lidocaine local anesthetic gel with one laser and local anesthetic gel alone on the other. Half of the participants are randomly selected (Covariate adaptive randomization) to First apply the local anesthetic gel with the laser on one side and then the gel alone on the other side of their mouth. This protocol is performed for the other half of participants in reverse. On the control side, the buccal mucosa of the canine tooth is dried with a cotton roll for 30 seconds, then topical lidocaine anesthesia gel is applied for one minute. Immediately using a powered off laser. used for 1 minute to create a placebo effect. On the test side, the buccal mucosa of the canine similar to anesthetic gel was applied for one minute and then laser irradiated at 940 nm before being injected for one minute.Then a short needle (gauge 27) is used by the dentist for injection. The injection will be done by ICT Injection. ICT Injection is a device that performs injection at a constant and adjustable speed and pressure. The device has three stages of injection, respectively, at speeds (1.8 ml / 250,150.50 s) and constant pressure. After preparation of the injection site, the device will be injected with the C-K Ject needle as follows: Initially 5 sec at 1.8 ml / 250 s in stage 1, then 5 sec at 1.8 ml / 150 s in stage 2 and in the remaining carpal anesthesia at 1.8 ml / 50 s in stage 3. Be.Patients in this study will be anesthetized with 2% Lidocaine plus Lidocaine 1% 8000 2% E-80, Darou Pakhsh, Karaj, Iran).

Description
Control group: At the control side, the buccal mucosa of the canine tooth is dried with cotton roll for 30 seconds, then topical lidocaine anesthesia gel is applied for one minute. This process is immediately followed by silent laser application for 1 minute to produce a placebo effect and then The injection is done in the same way.
