About this trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the reduction of the noises (through head phones with music and noise cancelling) that occur during wisdom teeth removal, leads to a significant reduction in fear levels in patients compared to patients who do not have any noise reduction. The main questions it aims to answer are:
Do music and noise cancelling help patients to have less fear during wisdom teeth removal surgery by reducing the sounds of the surgery? Is there a difference between just the noise cancelling function or is it better to combine noise cancelling and music together?
Participants will:
Just come to their regular appointment (wisdom teeth removal) to our clinic, no follow ups needed. All participants will answer one questionnaire before and one after the surgery. All of them will have their rate of heartbeat measured for three times (before, during and after surgery, measured by a puls oximeter on the finger). They will be allocated to one of the three study groups (no headphones, headphones with noise cancelling or headphones with noise cancelling and music).
