NCT Number: NCT06510244
Observational study at CDI Cleveland Dental Institute. Investigators will assess the pain perception in one group of patients using two non-invasive methods. First, a numerical rate scale (NRS) and second, a brain wave EEG.

To generate the nociceptive stimulus, The investigators will apply cold (Endo-Ice) to a healthy upper incisor tooth #8. Inclusion criteria: Patients between 20 and 60 years old, with healthy teeth, no history of dental alveolar trauma, and no pulp chamber calcification. After the nociceptive stimulus, patients will write their pain perception on paper from 0 to 10, and at the same time, we will record the brain activity with a non-invasive EEG Emotiv. Then, we will correlate both methods.
Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.
Inclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria
The teeth will be dried with 2x2 gauze; then, Endo Ice will be applied. The patient response will be written on a sheet numbering to choose from 0 to 10, and at the same time, the brain waves will be recorded through EEG.
Other names: Noninvasive Electroencephalography, Endo-Ice
Time frame: January 2024-December 2024
to observe the brain waves changes during pain perception
Time frame: January 2024-December 2024
To establish a possible correlation between the NRS and EEG measurements.
