    12 months

  • patient satisfaction

    12 months

Study Arms (2)

stainless steel crown

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Tooth preparation will involve using a tapered diamond bur to reduce the occlusal surface by 1-1.5mm. Special attention will be given to ensure a consistent occlusal reduction. Interproximal reduction will be carried out distally using a tapered diamond bur, with the rounding of line angles and achieving a knife-edge finish margin on the proximal surface while avoiding any ledge formation. For crown selection, an appropriately sized crown will be chosen based on the mesiodistal width of the prepared tooth, and a trial fit will be performed to prevent blanching before cementation. The crown will be contoured and crimped using crown-contouring and crimping pliers. Afterward, the crown will be smoothed and polished along the entire margin using a rubber wheel. Finally, the crown will be cemented using type 1 Glass ionomer luting cement (Prevest Denpro, India ), and any excess material will be removed with an explorer. The final occlusion will be then verified.

Other: stainless steel crown

bioflx crown

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Prior to preparation ,selection of crown size will be done by occlusal to occlusal comparison \- we will maintain cusp inclines and reduce the occlusal by 1-1.5 mm , including the central groove(Tip of football diamond ) buccal and lingual occlusal third of clinical crown will be reduced by football diamond proximal contact will be opened with adjacent teeth by 0.5 mm, creating a feather edge gingival margin ( tip of black stripe diamond ) Roundation all line angles will be done Buccal bulge reduction will be done while maintaining a snug fit Trial fit the crown. Seating direction will be lingual to buccal . Adjustment of the preparation as needed for snug /active fit which should provide some resistance to dislodgement Glass ionomer luting cement (Prevest Denpro, India ) will be used to cement the crown

Other: bioflx crown

Interventions

The Bioflx crowns are characterized by their flexibility, durability, and adaptability. These crowns are preformed pediatric crowns designed for aesthetics, combining properties found in both stainless steel and zirconia crowns.

bioflx crown

Stainless steel crowns continue to be considered the "Gold Standard" for posterior full coverage restorations in primary molars
