Anxiety levels in both camouflaged group and conventional group in the children were scored before and after the procedure using the Chotta Bheem and Chutki scale. The Chotta Bheem and Chutki (CBC) scale comprises two separate cards: one for boys and the other for girls. The cartoon characters of Chotta Bheem and Chutki were chosen to depict various emotions for boys and girls respectively. Each card consists of a series of six figures depicting sequentially various emotions from 'happy' to 'unhappy and running away' of the cartoon character. Score 1 is happy face, score 2 is sad face, score 3 is crying face, score 4 is angry face, score 5 is shouting and score 6 is running. So, here, score 1 depicts patient is happy whereas as score increases anxiety level also increases which denotes that patient is unhappy.

Behavior rating in both camouflaged group and conventional group in the children were scored before and after the procedure using Frankel Behaviour rating scale. Behavior rating scale comprised of scores from definitely negative to definitely positive. 'Double negative'(--) i.e. 'definitely negative' score indicates that patient refuses treatment, 'negative score'(-) indicates that patient is reluctant to accept treatment, there is evidence of negative attitude but not pronounced, ' positive score' (+) indicates that patient accepts treatment though there is cautious with treatment but follows dentist's instructions cooperatively whereas ' definitely positive score' (++) indicates that there is good raport of patient with dentist and accepts the treatment with enjoyment. So, as score increases from definitely negative to definitely positive, behaviour of children also increases.
