Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This study is comparing between the Silver Diamine Fluoride after minimal caries removal versus glass ionomer in permanent teeth with open apex

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: Silver Diamine Fluoride
  • Drug: Glass Ionomer
Phase 4

Detailed Description

The study will be carried on young permanent molars with open apices & with deep caries. Incomplete caries removal and application of indirect pulp capping materials where Silver Diamine Fluoride (Group I) will be compared with glass ionomer only (group II). Then final restoration with composite resin for both groups. Children will be followed up for 9 months.

  • Drug: Glass Ionomer
    Indirect pulp capping material
    Other Names:
  • GI
  • Active Comparator: Glass Ionomer

    Glass ionomer will be applied after minimal caries removal followed by composite resin restoration.

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Postoperative Pain [9 months]

      Will be assessed by questioning the patient or the guardian whether there is postoperative pain or not, Binary (yes or no)

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Tooth vitality [9 months]

      Will be assessed by Vitality test using thermal stimulation, binary (yes or no)

    2. Abscess [9 months]

      Will be assessed intraoral Clinical examination whether there is swelling or not, binary (yes or no)

    3. Pain on percussion [9 months]

      Will be assessed by Percussion test by using the back of the mirror on the tooth, binary (yes or no)

    4. Root lengthening [9 months]

      Will be assessed measuring the root length by mm on the digital radiography (digora software)
