Microbiological Assessment After Chemo-Mechanical Caries Removal Using Papain-based Enzyme Versus Conventional Rotary Tools in Occlusal Carious Lesions

NCT03408626 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 2

Last updated 2019-01-31

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study will be conducted to assess the efficacy of caries excavation using the papain-based chemo-mechanical method (Brix 3000) in comparison to conventional rotary tools in the reduction of the bacterial population in occlusal carious cavities

Conditions

  • Microbial Colonization

Interventions

DRUG

Papain-based Chemo-mechanical caries removal agent

Birx 3000 and the exclusive Encapsulating Buffer Emulsifier (EBE) technology claim it has effective and selective proteolytic action to remove collagen fiber in the carious tissue. It has an antibacterial and antifungal power, thus it has an antiseptic power at the tissue level .furthermore, this gel does not contain chloramines in its formula, which enhances its toxicological safety feature.

DEVICE

conventional rotary

traditional rotary method
