1. Children aged 4–7 years with previously untreated lower second primary molars in cooperative children with good general health.
2. Children having had deep dentin caries involving occlusal and or occlusoproximal surfaces.
3. Children who were radiographically detected with caries penetration involving approximately 3/4 of the dentin thickness.
4. Children who were considered to have a potential to result in pulp exposure when the entire caries was cleared according to the complete excavation procedure in which the end point of carious tissue removal is the hard dentin.
5. Children whose teeth showed a moderate response to chemical and thermal stimuli.
1.Teeth showing signs of irreversible pulpitis (such as spontaneous pain, prolonged pain response)
2.Teeth showing pathological mobility,
3.Teeth showing infectious symptoms such as fistula or abscess, and discoloration
4.Presence of radiolucency in the furcation or periapical regions, and internal or external root resorption.
5.Children with systemic problems, congenital abnormalities and special children.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Clinical criteria: Tooth evaluated for presence / absence of pain, swelling, tender on percussion, pathological mobility & gingival sinus tract opening or purulent discharge Radiographic criteria: Evaluated for radiographic radiolucency , furcal involvement, peri apical radiolucency and internal or external resorption. The increase in dentin thickness will be measured using care stream software attached to Radiovisuography keeping cement-enamel junction as a reference .Timepoint: 3, 6,9,12,18, 24 months
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Histological criteria:Pulpal inflammation, prescence of tertiary dentin, Odontoblastic integrity will be evaluated. <br/ ><br>Timepoint: After 6 months follow up
