Brief Summary
This study aimed to evaluate the oral health related quality of life ( OHRQoL), during caries management in children with vital carious primary teeth with no signs of irreversible pulpitis using SDF alone or SDF in combination with ART, using Early Childhood Oral Health Impact Scale (ECOHIS).

EXPERIMENTALSDF + ART ( SMART technique )
ACTIVE COMPARATORInterventions
1\. Group 1: cleaning the occlusal surface to be treated with toothbrush. Decayed tissue from the affected teeth will not be removed for the SDF group. Clinical procedure for SDF application: it will apply according to the SDF manufacturer Instructions as follows:(1) the surrounding gingival tissues and lips will be protected with petroleum jelly to avoid staining and irritation,(2) the affected tooth will be isolated and keep dry with cotton rolls and saliva ejectors, (3) one drop of SDF (SDI RIVA STAR ), will be placed into a disposable dish, (4) SDF will be applied with a micro-sponge directly to the affected tooth surface(s), (5) allowed to soak in for 2 min, then air-dried. Then will be followed by the Potassium iodide (KI) liquid to decrease discoloration caused by SDF. The KI liquid will be reapplied until no more white perception observed to form.
2\. Group 2: SDF+ART clinical procedure: (1)cleaning the occlusal surface to be treated with toothbrush.,(2) carious dentin will be removed using a small excavator (Spoon excavator ),(3) the cavity will be cleaned and dried, (4)cavity walls and floor will be conditioned for 10s, then washed and dried, (5) SDF will be applied as mentioned above followed by cavity restoration using resin-reinforced glass ionomer restorative material (SDI RIVA ).
