Filter by:Comparative Evaluation of Clinical Success,Parental and child Satisfaction of Bioflx Crowns Versus Stainless Steel Crowns as Restorations for Primary Molars: A Randomized Clinical Study
A single-blinded randomized clinical trial with a split-mouth design that will assess the 12-month clinical and radiographic success of two minimally invasive treatment techniques, one using a chemo-mechanical caries removal agent and one using a caries arresting agent, for the treatment of deep caries in primary molars.
Dental caries, a widespread oral health issue, results from a complex interplay of factors including behavior, hygiene, diet, and socio-demographic aspects. While preventive measures are available, it remains prevalent globally, affecting numerous teeth per individual. Improved oral hygiene practices and increased awareness have led to a reduction in caries prevalence. However, rising sugar consumption exceeds dietary guidelines, contributing to the problem. Despite limited epidemiological studies in Egypt, addressing individual-level factors is crucial. Surveillance of oral health in the early middle age group is standard, allowing decision-makers to assess the impact of caries and oral health care provision. Stratifying data by age, geography, and gender aids in understanding prevalence and planning effective prevention strategies. Overall, promoting awareness of dietary habits and preventive practices is vital for improving oral health outcome So, The purpose of this study is to assess the prevalence of dental caries among early middle age patients attending dental hospital in Faculty of Dentistry, Cairo university and to analyze the related risk factors utilizing WHO Oral Health Questionnaire for Adults.
The evolution of restorative dental materials and technology has enabled the use of tooth-colored restorative materials in dental restorations, with all dentists hoping for the presence of materials that combine biocompatible qualities and aesthetics . Although resin composite materials' mechanical and aesthetic properties have greatly improved over the past 20 years, research is currently on to find ways to prevent secondary caries from forming beneath and at the margins of restorations. In order to circumvent these problems, there is a growing tendency towards the use of resin-based bioactive and remineralizing restorative materials to strengthen and lengthen the lifespan of bonded dental restorations.
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to test the effect orally administration of Probiotics based on Lactobacillus rhamnosus LR04 and Lactobacillus plantarum LP14 as adjuvant in caries prevention in subjects who can not properly perform oral hygiene procedures. The main questions it aims to answer are: - QUESTION 1: orally administered probiotics based on the previous strains could represent a useful tool in support of special needs patients in tooth decay prevention? - QUESTION 2: orally administered probiotics based on the previous strains could ameliorate salivary pH management? Partecipants in the test group will take the test probiotic for 90 days in adjunction of the routinary oral hygiene procedures. Partecipants in the positive controlled group will take the placebo for 90 days in adjunction of the routinary oral hygiene procedures. Partecipants in the negative control group will perform only the routinary oral hygiene procedures. Researchers will compare 3 groups to see if orally administered probiotics based on L. rhamnosus and L. plantarum may help in the management of clinical status and salivary pH levels.
Aim of the study: The aim of this RCT is to evaluate CAD/CAM onlays fabricated by subtractive technique (brilliant crios) versus additive technique (varseosmile crown plus material), in terms of clinical functional evaluation following the FDI criteria and three-dimensional digital evaluation of the marginal and internal fit by triple scan protocol. Materials and methods: A total of 30 patients will be enrolled in the clinical trial following the eligibility criteria. Then, the patients will be randomly allocated to receive either 3D printed onlays or milled ones. A blinded operator will prepare a standardized cavity for the restoration and an impression will be performed. After designing the restoration on the Exocad software, A dentist not involved in the clinical part of the study will receive the STL file of the design and envelopes containing the information necessary only to manufacture the restorations (tooth numbers and restorative materials) to proceed with either the milling or printing procedures. Try in and cementation procedures will be similarly performed for both groups by a blinded operator. Finally, the marginal and internal fit will be evaluated by using the triple scan protocol for digital 3D assessment. Also, a baseline, six months and 12 months assessments will be performed by a blinded examiner, not involved in the clinical part for assessing the functional clinical performance of the re3stprations using the FDI criteria. Finally, the data will be statistically analyzed.
