Filter by:Patients presenting with deep decay within permanent teeth presents a common clinical challenge to dentists. The aim of this trial is to compare the success rate of the non-selective caries removal (NSCR) and selective caries removal (SCR) in managing deep caries, as both methods are commonly used in clinical practice. This study will be a randomized controlled trial, with participants divided into two groups: NSCR group and SCR group. Participants of deep caries lesions (reaching more than two-thirds of dentin on periapical radiographs) Both groups will undergo either NSCR or SCR, followed by Partial Pulpotomy (PP) in cases with pulp exposure. Success rates will be assessed at follow-up visits scheduled 1, 3, and 5 years radiographs will be used to assess for pulp health(vitality). The success rate of the two categories will be assessed using a scale that includes factors such as tooth vitality, caries recurrence, and clinical signs of pulpitis. The scale will be applied at follow-up visits. The trial will be conducted in post-graduate dental clinics at Guy's hospital. Deep caries in permanent teeth is a common clinical problem that can lead to pulp exposure and subsequent restorative challenges. The aim of this study is to provide evidence-based guidance for clinicians in managing deep caries lesions, as both NSCR and SCR are commonly used in clinical practice. The results of this study will help clinicians to make informed decisions when choosing the appropriate treatment approach for their patients. In conclusion, this trial aims to compare the success rate of NSCR and SCR in managing deep caries lesions in permanent teeth, as both methods are commonly used in clinical practice. The results of this study will provide valuable insights into the effectiveness of these two treatment approaches and will help clinicians to make informed decisions when choosing the appropriate treatment approaches.
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.
This trial aims to compare treatment outcomes between Pulpotomy and Pulpectomy in treating vital primary teeth diagnosed with deep caries with symptoms of irreversible pulpits
The present study aims to evaluate the clinical and radiographic success of bioceramics putty MTA versus MTA in the pulpotomy of immature permanent molars The main question it aims to answer is: Will the biocermaics putty MTA have higher clinical and radiographic success rates than MTA in pulpotomy of immature permanent molars?
Aim of the study: To evaluate clinical and radiographic success rates of silver diamine fluoride versus mineral trioxide aggregate as indirect pulp capping agents in deeply carious young first permanent molars.
Conservative approaches such as indirect pulp capping techniques became popular over the last years for the management of deep carious lesions. In particular, indirect pulp-treatment (IPT) techniques have gained remarkable attention in pediatric dentistry, mainly because children require a fast and accurate treatment, besides it enables the affected primary tooth to remain in the mouth until exfoliation without causing any pain or infection.
Preservation of the remaining vital portion of curiously exposed pulpal tissue in primary teeth, was one of the most frequent problems in pediatric dentistry. To solve this problem, pulpotomy therapy was introduced. Pulpotomy involves amputation of the coronal portion of affected or infected dental pulp, treatment of the remaining vital radicular pulp tissue surface should preserve the vitality and function of all or part of the remaining radicular portion of the pulp. Furthermore, it is an accepted procedure for treating both primary and permanent teeth with carious pulp exposures, several materials have been using for capping the radicular pulp after pulpotomy, these included formocresol, glutaraldehyde, ferric sulfate, and mineral trioxide aggregate. Allium sativum is one of the most extensively researched medical plants and its antibacterial activity depends on allicin produced by the enzymatic activity of allinase (a cysteine sulfoxide lyase). Allicin and other thiosulfinates are believed to be responsible for the range of therapeutic effects reported for garlic. Garlic extract has been reported to inhibit growth of various gram‑positive and gram‑negative bacteria. Previous studies showed that A. sativum oil is used as new pulp medications and it offers a good healing potential, leaving the remaining pulp tissue healthy and functioning. MTA is a unique material with various advantages. It has been used successfully by pediatric dentists in a variety of clinical applications. However, its drawbacks especially its high cost, discoloration potential, difficulty in handling, and long setting time.
This study is comparing between the Silver Diamine Fluoride after minimal caries removal versus glass ionomer in permanent teeth with open apex
