This randomized clinical trial aims to evaluate and compare the clinical and radiographic performance of 38% silver diamine fluoride (SDF) with 38% silver diamine fluoride followed by light curing in children with carious primary molars. Children aged 4-8 years with active caries in mandibular primary molars will be included in the study. One group will receive 38% silver diamine fluoride followed by LED light curing, while the comparison group will receive 38% silver diamine fluoride without light curing. The primary outcome is postoperative pain, assessed using the visual analogue scale (VAS). Secondary outcomes include caries lesion arrest, lesion extension and severity, signs of infection, pain on percussion, pathological tooth mobility, and radiographic changes. Participants will be followed for 12 months. The findings may help determine whether adding light curing to silver diamine fluoride application improves the management of caries in primary molars.

Postoperative pain
Postoperative pain will be assessed using a visual analogue scale (VAS) ranging from 0 to 10, where 0 indicates no pain and 10 indicates the worst pain.
At baseline and at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after treatment.
Caries lesion arrest
At baseline and at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after treatment.
Caries lesion severity (ICDAS)
At baseline and at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after treatment.
Caries lesion activity (Nyvad criteria)
At baseline and at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after treatment.
Soft-tissue pathology
At baseline and at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after treatment.
Pain on percussion
At baseline and at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after treatment.
Participants will receive topical application of 38% silver diamine fluoride (SDF) without light curing. The solution will be applied to the carious lesion using a microbrush for 1 minute, followed by gentle air drying for 10 seconds and natural drying without light curing
Participants will receive topical application of 38% silver diamine fluoride (SDF), followed by LED light curing for 20 seconds using a light-curing unit with a wavelength of 420-480 nm and an intensity of 1200-1500 mW/cm².
