Summary

This study evaluated the clinical and microbiological long-term effects of 1.25% CHX associated with GIC applied in primary molars using Atraumatic Restorative Treatment (ART) technique. Randomized controlled trial was conducted on 40 children with carious lesions that received ART either with GIC containing CHX or GIC only. Survival rate of restorations was checked at 3 days, 3 months and 1 year after their placement when the unstimulated saliva samples were collected for microbiological assessment of mutans streptococci (MS) counts. Data were analyzed using ANOVA/Tukey or Kruskal-Wallis/Mann-Whitney tests (p \<0.05).

Conditions

  • Dental Caries

Interventions

PROCEDURE

ART with GIC containing 1.25% CHX.

Carious lesions were prepared by removing infected dentin with hand instruments. No local anesthesia was administered. Then, the cavities were filled with the press finger technique using GIC KetacMolar Easymix® containing 1.25% chlorhexidine digluconate (n= 41 tooth surfaces).

PROCEDURE

ART with GIC.

Carious lesions were prepared by removing infected dentin with hand instruments. No local anesthesia was administered. Then, the cavities were filled with the press finger technique using KetacMolar Easymix® (n = 66 tooth surfaces).
