Lavender and rosemary oil for dental anxiety in kids
Part of Mental health, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests whether breathing in lavender or rosemary oil—or a mix of both—can help children feel less anxious or have less pain during a tooth extraction. It's a simple, natural approach to make dental visits easier.
