NCT06220383

Brief Summary

This study aims to evaluate and compare the change on occlusion after placing stainless steel crowns (SCC) using Hall technique and conventional technique in children between the ages of 5-8. In addition, the investigators planned to analyze the change in oral health-related quality of life between SCC applied with the Hall technique and SCC applied with the conventional method, before and after clinical application.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • The measurement of intrusion of teeth with stainless steel crown applied with Hall technique using Gom Inspect

    Intrusion scores in Hall technique 0-3, where 0 means no movement, 3 means intrusion

    Immediately before the procedure and one month control

  • The measurement of intrusion of teeth with stainless steel crown applied with conventional technique using Gom Inspect

    0-3, where 0 means no movement, 3 means extrusion

    Immediately before the procedure and one month control

  • Change from measurement the distance between the cusps of canines with stainless steel crown applied with Hall technique using Exocad

    0-2, where 0 means no movement, 2 means no closure

    Immediately before the procedure and one month control

  • Change from measurement the distance between the cusps of canines with stainless steel crown applied with conventional technique using Exocad

    0-2, where 0 means no movement, 2 means no closure

    Immediately before the procedure and one month control

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Measuring the impact of stainless steel crowns on oral health and quality of life in children section with the Early Childhood Oral Health Impact Scale

    Immediately after the procedure and one month control

  • Measuring the impact of stainless steel crowns on oral health and quality of life in parents section with the Early Childhood Oral Health Impact Scale

    Immediately after the procedure and one month control

Study Arms (2)

Hall technique

EXPERIMENTAL

In the Hall technique method, an orthodontic separator was placed 2 days before the procedure to create distance for the crown in the mesial and distal contact areas of the tooth on which the crown will be placed. A stainless steel crown was cemented on the tooth with glass ionomer cement without local anesthesia, caries cleaning or any preparation. The participant was asked to close the teeth tightly for 2-3 minutes.

Procedure: Hall technique

Conventional technique

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

In the conventional technique, after the area to be anesthetized was dried, topical anesthetic solution (Locanest 10% spray lidocaine, Avixa, Turkey) was applied to the mucosa with a cotton pellet for one minute. For infiltrative anesthesia, 4% articaine solution (Ultracaine DS Forte ampoule, Sanofi-Aventis GmbH, Germany) containing 1 ml of 1:100,000 epinephrine was applied. Preparation was made on the mesial, distal and occlusal sides of the tooth. The decay was cleaned and the cavity was filled with glass ionomer cement (Ketac Molar Easymix, 3M™ ESPE™, St. Paul, MN, USA). The stainless steel crown was bonded with glass ionomer cement (Ketac Cem Easymix, 3M™ ESPE™, St. Paul, MN, USA).

Procedure: Conventional technique

Interventions

Prepless crown technique

Hall technique

1 or 1,5 mm preparation on mesial, distal and occlusal of the tooth

Conventional technique
