Clinical Trial Summary

This study evaluates the patient 's discomfort when submitted to partial caries removal through the atraumatic restorative treatment compared to chemo-mechanical caries removal using Papacarie™ gel.


Description:

This study will evaluate the patient 's discomfort through oximeter (measuring the heart rate of the caries) prior to removal of the carious tissue, and when subjected to partial caries removal through the atraumatic restorative treatment compared to removal of chemo - mechanical caries with Papacarie gel ™.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Discomfort evaluation with Wong-Baker The discomfort of each type of treatment will be evaluated using the facial scale of Wong-Baker (Wong, Baker, 1998).
This scale indicates the discomfort of an individual who has to choose among six faces. The first image is a smiling happy face, indicating no discomfort, followed by gradually less cheerful expressions, up to the last one which is a very sad face covered by tears, indicating great discomfort. The participant will be asked to choose the face that is more similar to how he/she felt during the treatment immediately after the procedure. This answer should be given solely by the child, which means no parental or professional interference
immediately after treatment
Primary Discomfort evaluation with heart beat and oxygen saturation Before the procedure (when the patient is in the dental chair and there is no intervention), and during the procedure (removal of the cavity tissue).
Secondary Time of restorative procedure Will be evaluated the time required for removal of the caries tissue only with manual removal and when manual removal with the product Papacárie ™
Secondary Operators satisfaction immediately after treatment
