This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing whether two types of technology—augmented reality glasses that show calming nature videos and relaxing music, or noise-cancelling headphones that play soothing music—can help reduce anxiety during dental surgery. Researchers will measure how well these tools work by tracking both what you report feeling and your body's physical stress responses, like heart rate and skin conductance. The goal is to see if immersive distraction can make dental procedures less frightening and more comfortable.
Dental anxiety keeps many people from getting the care they need and causes real physical stress during procedures. This study exists to find simple, non-drug ways to help patients feel calmer and more in control during dental surgery.

On the day of your scheduled dental procedure, you will be randomly assigned to wear either augmented reality glasses showing nature videos with music, noise-cancelling headphones playing relaxing music, or a placebo version of these devices. Throughout your dental surgery, you'll wear a small wrist sensor that monitors your heart rate and stress levels. After the procedure, you'll complete some brief questionnaires about your anxiety and experience. The entire participation happens during your single dental appointment—no additional visits are required.
