Inclusion/Exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria:
Healthy individuals (ASA 1 & ASA 2 based on American society of anesthesiologist classification) who are healthy in terms of written records (based on the individual's records in their medical record) and oral question (interview). The GHQ-28 general health questionnaire (available in the appendix) is used to equalize the participants psychologically. The validity and reliability of the questionnaire in Persian version is confirmed. Participants should not take any medication that alters their perception of pain. All participants have healthy systemic conditions and no active infection in the injection area. Individuals are volunteers to participate in the study. Candidates must be 20 to 60 years old.

Randomization description
All eligible people are randomly assigned to four groups (A-D) in the first stage. In the following, using Excel software, the samples are placed in 9 blocks of 4. (The total sample size is 36). Blocks of 4 are formed as ADCB, ADBC, ACDB, ACBD, ABDC, ABCD, etc.) For example: four people refer to the center where the groups are supposed to be assigned. In the Excel software, between the number 1 and 24, supposedly the number 2 is chosen by chance; Therefore, these four people are assigned to the ABDC block in the order of reference. In fact, the first person enters group A, the second person enters group B, the third person enters group D, and the fourth person enters group C.

Primary outcomes

1

Description
The amount of pain after injection
Timepoint
Immediately after injection
Method of measurement
Using a numerical rating scale (NRS 0-10), the pain level is evaluated. This scale has points from 0 to 10 and the patient is asked to specify the level of pain in the index [61].

Secondary outcomes

1

Description
Blood pressure
Timepoint
Before, during and after injection
Method of measurement
When the patient sits on the dental chair, we wait 10 minutes until the patient's heart rate, blood pressure, and respiratory rate return to normal. Then the vital sign device (CMS 6000 brand made in China) is connected to the patient to measure heart rate, blood pressure and respiratory rate and the patient is monitored. For adults, normal blood pressure is defined as 120/80 (mmHg). After the patient is connected to the vital sign measuring device, blood pressure is recorded before the injection. Then once during the injection and finally immediately after the injection blood pressure is recorded and compared with the initial level.

Description
Heart beat
Timepoint
Before, during and after injection
Method of measurement
When the patient sits on the dental chair, we wait 10 minutes until the patient's heart rate, blood pressure, and respiratory rate return to normal. Then the vital sign device (CMS 6000 brand made in China) is connected to the patient to measure heart rate, blood pressure and respiratory rate and the patient is monitored. For adults, a normal heart rate is defined as 80 to 100 beats per minute (bpm). After the patient is connected to the vital sign measuring device, the heart rate is recorded before the injection. Then, once during the injection and finally immediately after the injection, the heart rate is recorded and compared with the initial rate.

Description
Respiratory rate
Timepoint
Before, during and after injection
Method of measurement
When the patient sits on the dental chair, we wait 10 minutes until the patient's heart rate, blood pressure, and respiratory rate return to normal. Then the vital sign device (CMS 6000 brand made in China) is connected to the patient to measure heart rate, blood pressure and respiratory rate and the patient is monitored. For adults, normal breathing is defined as 12 to 20 breaths per minute. After the patient is connected to the vital signs measurement device, first before the injection, the respiratory rate is recorded. Then once during the injection and finally immediately after the injection, the respiratory rate is recorded and compared with the initial rate.
