NCT02217098

Brief Summary

The null hypothesis of this study is that GCC, GIC and compomer have the same survival rate when used for the treatment of occlusal and proximal caries in primary molars with ART under field conditions. This research will be done under field conditions in Barueri, a city in the state of São Paulo, Brazil. A total of 600 patients will be selected. After 1, 6, 12, 18 and 24 months the restorations and teeth will be evaluated by two independent evaluators. Only children whose parent or representative who have signed an informed consent are included in this research.The ART treatments will be done by two dental students. The operators will receive the same ART-training. The children will be randomly assigned to one of the operators. The restorative material to be used in each child will be assigned by another random list. It will be performed descriptive analyses to describe the sample. Bivariate analyses will be performed to test the hypothesis. The data will be analyzed with a chi-square test to compare the survival rates of GIC and GCC. Some co-variables will be evaluated, such as: operator effect, the influence of the cavity size on the survival rate, the position of the tooth, the dentists preferred side, the child's dmft/DMFT, contamination and finally the preoperative conditions. The effect of these variables on the survival rate will be evaluated using a regression analysis.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Survival rate (longevity) of ART restorations using differents materials

    The null hypothesis of this study is that GCC, GIC and compomer have the same survival rate when used for the treatment of occlusal and occlusoproximal caries in primary molars with ART under field conditions.

    6, 12, 24 and 36 months follow-up

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Association between survival and gender

    6, 12, 24 and 36 months follow-up

  • Association between survival and DMFT (caries experience)

    6, 12, 24 and 36 months follow-up

  • Association between survival and occlusal contact after restoration

    6, 12, 24 and 36 months follow-up

  • Association between sucess and ICDAS of the adjacent tooth (if there is a dentin cavited lesion or not)

    6, 12, 24 and 36 months follow-up

  • Cost-effectiveness of the 3 materials and their association with survival rate

    6, 12, 24 and 36 months follow-up

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Eligibility Criteria

Age4 Years - 8 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17)

You may qualify if:

  • Healthy children, age: 4-8 years
  • At least one occlusal or proximal carious lesion in primary molar involving dentin
  • Cooperative behavior
  • Presence of antagonist of the tooth
  • Carious lesion involving dentin with dimensions bucco-lingual and mesio-distal not greater than 2.5mm, occluso-cervical not greater than 2.0mm
  • Absence of tooth mobility and abscess or fistula near to the selected tooth

You may not qualify if:

  • Only children whose parent or representative who have signed an informed consent are included in this research. Only one restoration per child will be included in this study. If more carious lesions are present, one of them will be randomly selected for this research.
