In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Dental anxiety is common during third molar extractions and may exacerbate pain perception. Local anesthesia does not prevent exposure to stress-inducing stimuli. Virtual reality (VR) combined with hypnotic scripts (HypnoVR®) provides immersive multisensory distraction. This study tests whether VR reduces perioperative anxiety and postoperative pain compared to local anesthesia alone.
