Occlusal Bite Force Changes After Placement of Stainless Steel Crowns in Children

NCT03254069 | Completed DMC

• 1 other identifier: Occlusal Bite Force
• Study Type: interventional
• Target: 44
• Locations: 1 country
• Sites: 1

Brief Summary

The aim of this study was to determine if restoring primary molars with SSCs would improve children's OBF.

Conditions

Dental Caries

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Maximum Occlusal Bite Force (MOBF)

  Occlusal Bite Force will be measured in Newton

  Six Months post placement

Study Arms (2)

Stainless Steel Crown Arm

EXPERIMENTAL

Children with SSCs placed and followed longitudinal. Consent was obtained from all parents and verbal assent was obtained. The following data was collected: Demographic Data of the Children, clinical examination, radiographs, treatment planning, details of stainless steel crowns placement, OBF measurements were made before the SSC placement and periodically post placement

Device: Stainless Steel Crowns

Control Arm

NO INTERVENTION

A second group consisted of twenty-two children (11 females and 11 males; a mean age of 5.20 ± 0.36 years) were selected to act as a control sample and received no dental treatment. MOBF was recorded in these subjects at T0 and T5 (6 months after).

Interventions

Stainless Steel Crowns DEVICE

SSCs were placed on children's primary molars, and bite force was registered prior to the study, and periodically after the study.

Also known as: SSCs

Stainless Steel Crown Arm
