Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  Mini dam , Optra dam  The procedure will be explained to the participants verbally and using audio visual records. Prior to placement of mini dam,optra dam isolation technique 2% lignocaine local anesthesia is given. Anxiety level, child’s behaviour are assessed at baseline and during the placement of using mini dam, optra dam using animated visual anxiety rating scale and modified Frankel behaviour rating scale respectively and recorded .Operators convenience during dental care procedure is calculated by recording time from baseline and during the placement of mini dam ,optra dam using stop clock. 
Intervention  Rubber Dam   duration of intervention will be from baseline to the placement of dam.The procedure will be explained to the participants verbally and using audio visual records. Prior to placement of rubber dam isolation technique 2% lignocaine local anesthesia is given.
