Clinical Trial Summary

The objective of this research was to evaluate the clinical effect of photodynamic therapy on dentin infected by caries lesion in permanent teeth with Molar Incisor Hypomineralization (MIH). The study was composed of Groups (1 and 2). The methodology was based on the selection of patients from 6 to 12 years of age with permanent molar teeth, randomly divided. The selected teeth had deep dentin caries lesions on the occlusal surface, and sensitivity, indicated for clinical restorative treatment. Photodynamic therapy was applied with the use of low-intensity laser in permanent teeth selected for the treatment of infected dentin in G1. In this group, antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) and atraumatic restorative treatment (ART) were made. In G2, only ART was performed. The teeth were restored with high viscosity glass ionomer cement. All patients had clinical and radiographic follow-up with a time interval of 6 and 12 months. Data were submitted to descriptive statistical analysis. For the evaluation of the association of categorical variables like age and gender, the Chi-square test and Fisher's exact test were used. To analyze the correlation between the continuous variables, the Pearson correlation test was applied. ANOVA and Kruskal-Wallis were applied for the analysis of dentin density in the radiographic images scanned and the microbiological results for colony forming units.

Study Design


Intervention

Radiation:
aPDT
For the aPDT the PapacarieMblue (Fórmula e Ação) was used. It was left for 5 minutes in the cavity. The carious tissue was removed and the application of the PapacarieMblue was repeated. The tissue was then irradiated in a single spot with a red laser, of wavelength of 660 nm, for 300 s, with the energy of 500mJ. These parameters were also applied in the vestibular root of the teeth, to try and prevent sensitivity.
Procedure:
ART
Removal of infected dentin with a curette only, followed by cavity cleaning and restoration with glass ionomer cement.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Change in dentin sensitivity Prior to removal of carious tissue, the volunteers responded to the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), following this protocol: gauze isolation of neighboring teeth and air jet in the tooth with MIH for 3 to 5 seconds. The evaluation of the sensitivity through the VAS was repeated at the end of the procedure, after Atraumatic Restorative Treatment (ART). Before and immediately after treatment.
Secondary Change in colony forming units Microbiological specimens were collected from the surface of the dentin before and immediately after the treatment, for later counting of colony forming units. Before and immediately after treatment.
Secondary Change in dentin density The objective was to quantitatively determine the gray tones of the affected dentin region just below the glass ionomer restoration, whose radiographic control for visualization of the healthy dentin allows the clinical evaluator of the study to compare the treated groups with the density of the remaining dentin in discussion. The statistical analysis of the optical density were made according to the mixed effects model. After 6 and 12 months.
Secondary Change in the presence of cavity filling The evaluation scores will be evaluated based on the results of studies by other authors (Frencken, et al., 1996). Digital photos (Canon Sx500 IS Camera) will be taken of all the teeth and, from these photographs, the teeth will be classified as follows:
0 = present, without defect.
= present, small defects in the margin less than 0.5 mm deep, no need for repair.
= present, small defects in the margin of 0.5 to 1 mm depth, needs repair.
= present, gross defects in the margin of 1 mm or more in depth, needs repair.
= absent, restoration almost / completely lost, needs treatment.
= absent, other treatment was performed for any other reason.
= tooth missing due to any reason.
= present, surface wear less than 0.5 mm, no need for replacement.
= present, surface wear greater than 0.5 mm, need replacement.
= impossible to diagnose.
After 6 and 12 months.
