The Use of Virtual Reality Goggles

All appointments will take place at the College of Dentistry Department of Pediatric
Dentistry. The first day's appointment will consist of clinically-indicated cleaning,
radiographs and treatment planning. Toward the end of the first appointment, the participant
will wear the virtual reality goggles for 5 minutes, in order to become familiar with the
device. During these 5 minutes, fluoride varnish will be applied. The application of the
varnish would occur whether the participant is in the research or not.

At the second or third appointments, the goggles will be randomly used during the restorative
treatment. Whether the participant uses the goggles at the second or third visit will be
determined purely by chance, like flipping a coin. No nitrous oxide will be used, but local
anesthesia will still be administered as standard. The participant will use a 1-10 scale at
the end of each appointment to rate pain levels, and a research team member(the dental
assistant) will assign a 1-4 scale value for behavior. The 1-10 scale will consist of the
Wong-Baker Faces Pain Scale.
