Filter by:This study will investigate the performance and cost-effectiveness of glass-ionomer restorations placed in school children in an outreach setting in rural areas in South Africa over a 2-year period, when placed using either ART (in a classroom) or conventional (in a mobile clinic) cavity preparation.
The goal of this [type of study: Randomized clinical trial] to compare the clinical performance of using glass ionomer with advanced glass hybrid technology (AGH) in cervical carious lesion, versus Resin modified glass ionomer (RMGI) using esthetic and mechanical properties according to FDI criteria over one year. in adult patients with cervical carious lesion. The main question it aims to answer are: • Will the use of glass ionomer with advanced glass hybrid technology, achieved through introduction of ultra-fine highly reactive glass and high-molecular weight polyacrylic acid powders within conventional glass ,or Resin Modified Glass Ionomer have better mechanical and estheic properties over one year in adult patients with cervical carious lesions ? Participants will be assessed for medical and dental histories first. Then an examination of the patients will be done using visual inspection by using a dental mirror and probe. Eligible patients according to inclusion and exclusion criteria will be informed about all procedures with follow up time if they accept, their signature on written informed consents will be obtained. Eligible participants will be randomly divided into two groups according to the type of restoration that will be received after class V cavity preparations for carious cervical lesions. Patients will be given local anaesthesia (Mepecaine - L Cartridges) as required, and the teeth will be isolated. A No. #330 bur (MANI, INC, Japan) in a high-speed hand piece with air/water coolant will be used to prepare class V cavity. Sharp excavators of suitable size were used to excavate soft carious lesions in dentin. the prepared cavity will be isolated with rubber dam. The first group (A) will be received resin modified glass ionomer restorative material and the second group (B) will be received advanced glass hybrid glass ionomer . Each restoration will be evaluated for clinical parameters after finishing and polishing at baseline and regular recalls of 6 months and one year. The restorations will be clinically examined according to FDI criteria criteria in terms of esthetic and mechanical properties . The information that will be obtained will be collected and statistically analyzed.
Aim of the study: 1. Assess the correlation between salivary alkaline phosphatase levels and dental caries. 2. Assess the effect of growth of children on the levels of salivary alkaline phosphatase enzyme. 3. Assess the effect of growth of children on caries experience and severity.
Class V carious lesions will be restored using two different restorative materials either Resin modified glass ionomer or nanohybrid resin composite lined by PRG barrier coat. Each restoration will be evaluated for clinical parameters after finishing and polishing at baseline, at 6 months, 12 months and at 18 months. The restorations will be clinically examined according to modified USPHS criteria in terms of retention, marginal adaptation, marginal discoloration, secondary caries and postoperative sensitivity.
The aim of the clinical trial is to assess pain during Atraumatic Restorative Treatment (ART), Smart Burs and Chemo-mechanical Caries Removal (CMCR) in primary molars.
This study will compare between S-PRG-containing injectable flowable resin composite (Beautifil Flow Plus X) and smart bioactive flowable resin composite (Activa bioactive restorative) through evaluation of the modified USPHS clinical performance in patients with carious class V moderately deep cavities.
The aim of the study is to clinically evaluate the shade matching and clinical performance of the Universal shade composites Omnichroma and GC Essentia versus the multi shade composite Filtek Z350XT in restoring cervical lesions of anterior teeth.
The Texas A & M College of Dentistry, with partner Texas Oncology-Baylor Charles A. Sammons Cancer-Center Radiation-Oncology, proposes to conduct a preliminary clinical study (NIH Stage 0) to pilot test a randomized clinical trial of the efficacy of professionally applied 38% silver diamine fluoride to prevent tooth decay in 60 patients who are being treated with radiation for life threatening head and neck cancer.
This randomized clinical study aims to evaluate the clinical performance and occlusal wear resistance of nano-zirconia reinforced glass ionomer restorations in comparison to Nano-hybrid resin composite in proximal cavities.
The objective of this randomized control cinical trial will be to compare the effectiveness of precured composite inserts in obtaining tight and adequate conatacts in class 2 restorations when compared with the contact making instrument technique among patients treated at the operative depatment of Foundation Umiversity College of Dentistry. This is a single centre based randomized control clinical trial in which intervention arm 1 will get there class 2 restoration done with precured composite inserts and interention arm 2 will recieve treatment with contact making instrument technique. The control arm will recieve restoration using the conventional composite layering technique.
