Abstract | Anxiety/pain is a combined experience that can hinder dental treatment in children and lead to the development of negative behaviours in any form of surgical treatment. Hypnosis is a suitable option with which to reduce anxiety and pain during dental treatment. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the efficacy of hypnosis compared to the tell/show/do technique for the reduction of anxiety and pain as measured by Face, Legs, Activity, Crying, Consolability (FLACC) scale in children undergoing pulpotomies. We performed a randomized and controlled clinical trial involving 60 children aged 5 to 7 years without previous dental experiences but with clinical and radiographic indications for pulpotomy in the primary mandibular right or left first or second molar. The children were divided into two groups: a control group (treated by conventional behaviour management techniques) and an experimental group (treated by hypnosis). The FLACC scale was used to evaluate anxiety/pain during preoperative, transoperative and postoperative pulpotomy treatment; we also analysed variations in heart rate and skin conductance. The trial was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT03739346). Statistical analysis was performed in R Studio version 1.2.1335. The FLACC scale was significantly lower in the experimental group ( |
