The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of high frequency neural modulation as a substitute for traditional local anesthesia in various dental procedures. This double-blinded study was done to evaluate patient comfort and degree of satisfaction as well as manageability of pain control by the operator during the dental procedures. Procedures included restorations, tooth extractions, root planing, pulp extirpation, and temporomandibular joint therapy. In the experimental group, favorable responses ranged from 0.0% to 92.8%, depending on the procedures. An overall favorable rating of 71.8% was given by the experimental group, and an overall favorable response of 8.5% was given by the placebo group.
本研究的目的是评估高频神经调制在各种牙科手术中作为传统局部麻醉替代品的有效性。这项双盲研究旨在评估患者的舒适度和满意度，以及牙科手术过程中操作者对疼痛控制的可管理性。手术包括修复、拔牙、根面平整、牙髓摘除和颞下颌关节治疗。在实验组中，根据手术的不同，良好反应率在0.0%至92.8%之间。实验组给出的总体良好评分为71.8%，安慰剂组给出的总体良好反应率为8.5%。
