Dental Caries Clinical Trial
Official title:

Study type | Interventional |
This study investigates whether 1) Silver diamine fluoride (SDF) application using Super Floss can arrest and/or reverse initial interproximal caries on primary molars and 2) whether SDF applied with Super Floss is more effective in arresting or remineralizing initial interproximal lesion in comparison to SDF applied without Super Floss or fluoride varnish applied alone.

Eligibility | Inclusion Criteria: - ASA I and ASA II children, aged 3-12 - Behavior of 3 or 4 on Frankl scale - Radiographic decay within enamel or extending to the dentin-enamel junction based on International Caries Classification and Management System (ICCMS) Categories 1, 2 and 3 "Initial stages". - Target interproximal lesion does not have existing restoration, recurrent decay, or adjacent teeth with existing restorations. Exclusion Criteria: - Children who are not ASA I or ASA II - Children who are allergic to or intolerant of SDF - Children who have known sensitivity to silver or heavy metal-ions, or have abnormal skin sensitization. - Children who have ulcerative gingivitis or stomatitis. - Carious interproximal lesions on primary molars in ICCMS Category 4, 5, or 6 18 , which signify the extent of the carious lesion radiographically reaching the middle 1/3 of dentin, inner 1/3 of dentin, and into the pulp respectively. - Behavior of a child within the Frankl 1 or 2 category, indicating a "Definitely Negative" and "Negative" behavior, which may compromise safe application of SDF. |

Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | Interproximal caries zone of radiolucency | Bitewing radiographs will be taken of target lesions at Day 1 (baseline). Target interproximal carious lesion(s) will be rated based on the zone of radiolucency on the radiographs using the International Caries Classification and Management System (ICCMS).
Category 1 = Radiolucency in the outer 1/2 of enamel Category 2 = Radiolucency in the inner 1/2 of enamel Category 3 = Radiolucency in the outer 1/3 of dentin |
Baseline | |
Primary | Interproximal caries zone of radiolucency | Bitewing radiographs will be taken of target lesions at 6 months and compared. Target interproximal carious lesion(s) will be rated based on the zone of radiolucency on the radiographs using the International Caries Classification and Management System (ICCMS).
Category 1 = Radiolucency in the outer 1/2 of enamel Category 2 = Radiolucency in the inner 1/2 of enamel Category 3 = Radiolucency in the outer 1/3 of dentin |

Primary | Interproximal caries zone of radiolucency | Bitewing radiographs will be taken of target lesions at 12 months and compared. Target interproximal carious lesion(s) will be rated based on the zone of radiolucency on the radiographs using the International Caries Classification and Management System (ICCMS).
Category 1 = Radiolucency in the outer 1/2 of enamel Category 2 = Radiolucency in the inner 1/2 of enamel Category 3 = Radiolucency in the outer 1/3 of dentin |
