Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of the Hall technique and modified Hall technique to the conventional Stainless-Steel Crown restoration in the treatment of primary molars with dentinal caries with or without proximal ridge intact.

Conditions

  • Dental Caries

Interventions

DEVICE

Hall Technique (HT)

Prior to each restoration, a bacterial sample of the lesion will be obtained with a cotton swap and dispensed in a transport medium for microbial analyses.The preformed metal crown (PMC) will placed without local anesthetic and without crimping or trimming. When the contact points are tight, an orthodontic elastic separator will be placed for 2 hours prior to PMC placement. The PMCs will be cemented with glass ionomer Ketac cem.

DEVICE

Modified Hall Technique (MHT)

Prior to each restoration, a bacterial sample of the lesion will be obtained with a cotton swab and dispensed in a transport medium for microbial analyses.This group will in addition to all the procedures for the Hall will have the Caries lesions treated with 30% Silver Diamine Fluoride (SDF) before cementation of the stainless-steel crowns.

DEVICE

Conventional Technique (CT)

Prior to each restoration, a bacterial sample of the lesion will be obtained with a cotton swab and dispensed in a transport medium for microbial analyses. Conventional occlusal, proximal slicing and when necessary buccal and lingual surfaces will be carried out under local anesthesia and dental dam isolation local anesthesia.The PMC will be trimmed and crimped at the gingival margin to improve the fit, and cemented with Ketac cem.
