Does virtual reality reduce pain during and after the procedure? Does virtual reality have a favorable effect on physiological stress responses such as blood pressure, heart rate, and oxygen saturation? Does virtual reality affect surgical process-related outcomes and early wound healing?\n\nResearchers will compare adults who receive standard periodontal frenectomy with virtual reality-based audiovisual distraction to adults who receive standard periodontal frenectomy without virtual reality.\n\nParticipants will:\n\nComplete anxiety and pain questionnaires before the procedure. Undergo periodontal frenectomy under local anesthesia. Be randomly assigned to either the virtual reality group or the control group. Have blood pressure, heart rate, oxygen saturation, and pain levels recorded at defined time points during the procedure.\n\nRecord daily pain levels and analgesic use for 7 days after surgery.

Postoperative pain will be evaluated once daily for seven consecutive days using the Wong-Baker FACES Pain Rating Scale, the Modified Emoji Pain Scale (MEPS), and gender-specific pain assessment scales. The primary objective is to characterize the time course of postoperative pain during the first postoperative week. Secondary objectives include evaluating the agreement and correlation between the different pain assessment instruments used in pediatric patients.
