Brief Summary  
Nitrous oxide/oxygen inhalation, also referred to as N2O/O2 analgesia/anxiolysis, is a safe and effective technique used to manage dental pain and anxiety.

It may prove as invaluable pharmacological behavior management technique during challenging procedures like local anesthesia in pediatric patients.

Technique of nitrous oxide administration can be divided into two types :1. slow titration or the standard titration 2. Rapid titration

As there are not many studies reported regarding the rapid titration method the present study is planned to compare the effectiveness of two types of titration techniques.
