The children were divided into 2 groups(SMART group and ART group). For Atraumatic Restorative Technique (ART technique), glass ionomer cement(GIC) was applied according to manufacturer's instructions. For Silver Modified Atraumatic Restorative Technique (SMART technique), SDF was applied carefully using bended micro sponge brush. It was applied directly to only the affected tooth surface. After one week GIC was applied according to manufacturer's instructions. Clinical and radiographic evaluation were done for all teeth at 6, 12 months.
