According to the experience of Happycaine during scaling, differences in pain was by Likert 5 pints scale, Group B's pain was higher than Group A's(p=0.000). 3. According to the experience of Happycaine during scaling, the mean of panic from Group B was a little higher than Group A(p=0.036). In case of cold symptom during scaling, Group B was significantly different(p=0.011). In Group B, pain from dental hygienists was significantly different (p=0.000).
