Brief Summary  

The sight and sensation of the anaesthetic needle is the most fear-eliciting stimuli in children receiving dental treatment. Children trained on the bubble breath exercise perceived lesser pain while administering buccal infiltration anaesthesia. There was no significant change in the behaviour and anxiety.
