Overview
Brief Summary
This study will be conducted to Assess the clinical and microbiological efficacy of chemomechanical caries removal (CarieMove® Gel) versus conventional excavation method in children.
The assessed parameters will be:
- Efficacy of caries removal.
- Pain reaction and mean time required for the treatment.
- Total bacterial count before and after treatment.
Detailed Description
Subjects:
A total of 30 children 7-9 years old with no history of systematic disease will be recruited from the out-patient pediatric dental clinic, Faculty of Dentistry, Mansoura University.
Each child with the following criteria will be eligible for the present study (22).
Inclusion criteria:
- Cooperative child
- Each child has two bilateral first permanent molars with simple Class 1 occlusal caries involving dentin.
- The carious first permanent molars are free from clinical and radiographic evidence of pulp involvement.
- The selected molars should have normal structure and morphology.
Exclusion criteria:
- Un-cooperative child
- Molars with clinical and radiographic signs of pulp involvement.
- Children with special health care needs.
- Molars which have already been restored or have developmental anomaly.
