Clinical Trial Summary

This research study delves into the effectiveness of bioactive and non-bioactive restorative systems in deep carious permanent molars treated with selective caries removal. Selective caries removal techniques aim to preserve as much healthy tooth structure as possible while effectively eliminating carious tissue. The study investigates how the choice of restorative material influences the outcomes of selective caries removal procedures in deep carious lesions. By assessing factors such as restoration integrity, pulpal response, and long-term success rates, the research seeks to provide evidence-based insights into the comparative performance of bioactive and non-bioactive restorative systems in this clinical context.


Clinical Trial Description

Deep carious lesions in permanent molars present a significant challenge in restorative dentistry. Traditional approaches to caries removal often involve the removal of excessive healthy tooth structure, leading to weakened teeth and potential pulp exposure. Selective caries removal techniques aim to preserve as much healthy tooth structure as possible while effectively eliminating carious tissue, offering a conservative alternative to traditional methods. In recent years, bioactive restorative materials have emerged as promising alternatives to conventional non-bioactive materials. Bioactive materials are designed to interact with the biological environment, promoting remineralization and potentially enhancing the longevity of restorations. However, limited evidence exists comparing the efficacy of bioactive and non-bioactive restorative systems in deep carious lesions treated with selective caries removal. This study is designed as a prospective, randomized controlled trial. Patients presenting with deep carious lesions in permanent molars will be randomly allocated to receive either a bioactive or non-bioactive restorative system following selective caries removal. Baseline demographic and clinical data will be recorded for each participant. Clinical evaluations will be conducted at regular intervals over a follow-up period of months. Outcome measures will include restoration integrity (e.g retention, marginal adaptation), pulpal response (e.g., sensitivity, vitality). ;
