Trial details
This date has passed while the registry still lists the trial as open to participants. Sponsors often update a trial's status without revising its projected end date, so it may well still be recruiting — but the record is out of date in at least one respect. Check with the study contact before relying on either.
Primary endpoints
Dental Anxiety Level Assessed by the Children's Fear Survey Schedule-Dental Subscale (CFSS-DS); Physiological Stress Response - Cortisol
