Local Anesthesia in Molar Teeth With Molar Incisor Hypomineralization

Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Molar Incisor Hypomineralization

• Registration Number: NCT04061096
• Lead Sponsor: Didem Sakaryali

Brief Summary

To compare responses to electrical pulp test (EPT) and cold test among molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH)-effected and not MIH-effected carious teeth before and after administration of local anesthesia for caries removal.

Detailed Description

Fifty carious permanent first molar teeth (25 MIH-effected, 25 not MIH-effected) were included. Firstly, radiographic caries depth, International Caries Detection and Assessment System (ICDAS) codes and MIH levels of teeth were recorded. Then, during the treatment, EPT and cold test were performed before and after the administration of local anesthesia. Visual Analog Scale for Pain was used to evaluate cold test and pain during treatment. When interpreting results, significancy level was stated for the values of p\<0.05.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Cold test results	Time frame of cold test evaluation was aproximately 1 hour for each participant.	Visual Analog Scale for Pain was used to evaluate the cold tests for before and after the local anesthesia. Visual analog scale was used to rate the sensitivity level of patients with 6 different faces representing different levels of pain from "0=no pain" to "10=unbearable pain".
Electrical pulp test results	Time frame of electrical pulp test evaluation was aproximately 1 hour for each participant.	Electrical pulp test values at which patients felt sensitive were recorded.
Pain during the treatment	Pain during the treatment was evaluated for aproximately 1 hour for each participant.	Visual Analog Scale for Pain was used to evaluate the pain during the treatment. Visual analog scale was used to rate the sensitivity level of patients with 6 different faces representing different levels of pain from "0=no pain" to "10=unbearable pain".
