The study evaluates the effects of an audio‐visual distraction on children's behaviors and pain expressions during dental treatment. Material and Methods One hundred healthy children, between 4 and 6 years of age, were randomly assigned to one of two groups: audio visual distraction (AVD, N = 61) group and control (CTR, N = 39) group. The pre and post pain expression was collected using a faces pain rating scale from the participated children. Children's behavior was evaluated using the Frankl behavior rating scale by the assigned dentist. Data was analyzed using chi‐squared tests and analysis of variance.
