Official title
Evaluation Of Periodontal Health After Treatment With Hall Technique Compared to Atraumatic Restorative Treatment in The Management of Carious Primary Molars: A Randomized Clinical Trial
Overview
This trial seeks to evaluate the periodontal health of two modalities Hall Technique (by placing a stainless steel crown without caries removal, local anaesthesia won't be needed) \& ART (by removing caries by sharp excavator and restoring the tooth with glass ionomer, local anaesthesia won't be needed either) to achieve better treatment for caries with pain-free procedures in developing countries that have high caries index and low income.
Interventions
- Procedure ART
Caries excavation with hand instruments only and restoration with glass ionomer filling - Procedure Hall technique
Stainless steel crown placement without tooth preparation
Primary outcome measures
- Periodontal health [Time frame: initial, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months]
Secondary outcome measures (5)
- Gingival index [Time frame: Initial, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months]
- Postoperative pain and discomfort [Time frame: Immediately postoperative]
- Child behaviour [Time frame: Intraoperative]
- Child anxiety [Time frame: Intraoperative]
- Canine overbite [Time frame: Initial, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months]
