Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • change/evidence of post treatment spontaneous and provoked pain by questioning the patients

    The patients are questioned if they experienced post-operative pain within the first 48 hours and then followed up after 2, 6, 9 month to check if there is a change in the situation and evidence of a complain

    Immediate post operative, 2, 9 month

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Absence of pain on percussion

    Immediate post operative, 2, 9 month

  • Absence of post treatment swelling

    Immediate post operative, 2, 9 month

  • Absence of adverse radiographic findings

    Immediate post operative, 2, 9 month

Study Arms (2)

Antibacterial Bond

EXPERIMENTAL

Indirect pulp capping using antibacterial bond and x-tra fil composite 1. Local anesthesia administration 2. Isolation of tooth with rubber dam 3. Opening of the cavity and the removal of undermined enamel 4. Caries at the lateral walls of the cavity and at the dentin-enamel junction is completely removed 5. Partial removal of carious dentin on the pulp wall. 6. Washing the cavity and dryness 7. Apply antibacterial light-cure, self-etching bonding agent (Clearfil SE Protect, Kuraray America, Inc.) 8. Light-cured bulk fill composite (x-tra fil, VOCO) used as final tooth restoration.

Procedure: Indirect pulp capping

Conventional Bond

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Indirect pulp capping using conventional bond and x-tra fil composite 1. Local anesthesia administration 2. Isolation of tooth with rubber dam 3. Opening of the cavity and the removal of undermined enamel 4. Caries at the lateral walls of the cavity and at the dentin-enamel junction is completely removed 5. Partial removal of carious dentin on the pulp wall. 6. Washing the cavity and dryness 7. Apply conventional light-cure, self-etching bonding agent (Clearfil SE Bond, Kuraray America, Inc.) 8. Light-cured bulk fill composite (x-tra fil, VOCO) used as final tooth restoration.

Procedure: Indirect pulp capping

Interventions

Removal of superficial caries in young permanent molars that my expose tooth pulp if totally removed leaving deep carious layers to be sealed inside with two step bonding system and bulk fill composite as a final restoration

Also known as: Partial caries removal

Eligibility Criteria

Age6 Years - 14 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsChild (0-17)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients free from any systemic diseases.
  • Young permanent molars with deep carious lesions according to clinical and radiographic examination and at risk of pulp exposure if complete caries is removed.
  • Absence of clinical pathologic signs (fistula, swelling and abnormal tooth mobility)
  • The absence of clinical symptoms of irreversible pulpitis such as spontaneous pain or pain persisting after the disappearance of the existing stimulus or sensitivity to pressure.
  • Absence of adverse radiographic findings (interradicular or periapical radiolucencies, thickening of the periodontal membrane space, internal and external root resorption).
  • Compliant patient/parent.

You may not qualify if:

  • Teeth with previous restorative treatment.
  • Unrestorable teeth.
  • Uncooperative patients.
