NCT01449136

Brief Summary

Dental materials with antibacterial properties can prevent the harmful effects caused by oral cariogenic bacteria. This double-blind controlled clinical trial evaluated the performance of antibacterial cement for sealing infected dentin in atraumatic restorations of primary molars.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • number of successful restorations with a dental liner with antibiotics

    The absence of pain, fistulas, and mobility throughout the study was considered clinical success and the decreased or unchanged area of caries (obtained by a software to accurately measure distances between anatomical points selected by the operator of radiolucent zone beneath the restoration) and no bone or dental disorder was detected was considered radiographic success. Overall success was defined as clinical and radiographic success being achieved simultaneously.

    differences of overall success between baseline and the evaluations performed at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months.
