Brief Summary  

The aim of the study is to assess and compare the pain during infiltration by a modified two-stage local anaesthetic (LA) infiltration technique under topical anesthesia (TA). Depending upon the infiltration technique, TA and the time gap between TA and infiltration, the patients will be randomly divided into 4 groups. LA will be administered by infiltration at the mucobuccal fold of the maxillary central incisor and the pain perceived during the infiltration in each group will be recorded. The volunteers will be recalled after 24 hrs to assess the tenderness at the injection site.The results will be statistically analyzed.
