During exodontia, a music therapist controlled the auditory input. Calibrated examiners assessed the patients\u2019 behavior, pain, and anxiety using the Houpt scale, the Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, and Consolability scale, and a pulse oximeter, respectively. The recorded data was tabulated and sent for statistical analysis using Python (v3.11) in the Julius Code Sandbox.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results:<\/jats:title>\n \n Intergroup comparisons using the Kruskal\u2013Wallis test did not reveal a significant reduction in anxiety (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n > 0.05) and showed a marginally nonsignificant difference in behavior (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.07). Intragroup comparisons using Wilcoxon signed-rank tests showed a significant decrease in anxiety scores in Groups III (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.04) and IV (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.04). Nonparametric testing revealed no significant differences in pain between groups (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.70). Regression analysis and a goodness-of-fit test revealed that neither age nor gender influenced the patient, regardless of the intervention. Pooled contrasts for a simple linear regression model showed that comparisons among the interventional musical pieces were not clinically significant.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n The rhythmic pattern or the patient\u2019s familiarity with the musical piece influenced the patient\u2019s behavior, anxiety, and pain assessment, but with no clinical significance.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.4103\/jisppd.jisppd_140_26","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,29]],"date-time":"2026-06-29T15:00:20Z","timestamp":1782745220000},"page":"303-309","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Psychophysiological responses to professional music therapy during pediatric exodontia: A randomized controlled trial"],"prefix":"10.4103","volume":"44","author":[{"given":"Balraj","family":"Shukla","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pediatric and Preventive Dentistry, College of Dental Sciences and Research Centre, Gujarat University, Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anup","family":"Panda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pediatric and Preventive Dentistry, College of Dental Sciences and Research Centre, Gujarat University, Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"R2-20260701","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"23","DOI":"10.1007\/s40368-018-0380-6","article-title":"A review of the effect of music on dental anxiety in children","volume":"20","author":"Ainscough","year":"2019","journal-title":"Eur Arch Paediatr Dent"},{"key":"R4-20260701","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"214","DOI":"10.1002\/hbm.10065","article-title":"Cortical and subcortical networks underlying syncopated and synchronized coordination revealed using fMRI.
