Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose study are to evaluate the efficacy of Papacarie® for caries removal in comparison to the conventional drilling method.


Clinical Trial Description

Dental caries in children continues to affect a significant portion of the world population, especially in developing countries. There are many techniques used for dental caries treatment. The conventional method is to remove caries and prepare the cavity using dental burs. Disadvantages of this method; however, include the patients' repulsion of drilling, and possible thermal changes on tooth surface that may have an effect on the dental pulp tissues. In addition, the drilling technique frequently requires local anesthesia injections and sometimes results in the removal of sound tooth tissues. To overcome these problems and preserve the healthy dental tissues, the chemo-mechanical caries removal method was developed. The advantage by chemomechanical caries removal include less traumatic, less need local anesthesia, reduced chance of dental pulp exposure. And also it could be benefit to medical compromised patients.

Papacarie® is a new chemo-mechanical technique for caries removal with few published research and case reports. A randomized controlled trial is therefore needed to determine the efficacy of its use in general population. The aims of this study are to evaluate the efficacy of a chemo-mechanical system (Papacarie®) for caries removal in comparison to the conventional drilling method. ;
