Detailed Description
Restoration of pulp treated or badly broken down deciduous teeth with full coverage restoration have shown superior success rate to all other restorative materials.
Restoration of deciduous teeth with esthetic full coverage restoration has been a challenging aim especially for the more functionally loaded posterior teeth. Due to the continuous increase in socio-economic standards; restoring posterior teeth with esthetic restoration is on high demand nowadays.
The recently introduced zirconia pediatric crowns have been very promising in terms of strength and toughness. Clinical trials on maxillary incisors have shown very high success rates in terms of retention and gingival health.
The problem of restoring posterior deciduous teeth with pre-fabricated zirconia crowns is that its retention is only and totally dependent on luting cement, in addition to the problem of the deteriorated gingival condition around crowns in general.
Being recently introduced to the market; there have not been any clinical trials studying retention of zirconia posterior pediatric crowns published yet.
Recently introduced bio-active cement [NuSmile® BioCem™] is claimed by the manufacturer to be the solution of this problem due to the shock absorbing effect, bioactive components, and antimicrobial effect making it tougher than traditional cements and more gingival friendly.
Also, experienced clinicians have found that packable glass ionomer gives very acceptable results for retention of zirconia pediatric crowns. This may be due to the fact that, pre-fabricated pediatric crown is not well adapted to the prepared tooth creating a greater gap between the prepared tooth and the crown, resulting in a greater film thickness of luting cement, which may benefit from the stronger, tougher and less soluble packable glass ionomer rather than the conventional glass ionomer cement for cementation of zirconia crowns.
There is no clear evidence whether it's better to cement zirconia based crowns with conventional or adhesive cement; and to the investigator's knowledge, there is no data available for the best clinical practice in cementation of zirconia pediatric crowns; and so, this study was carried out to compare the effectiveness of bio-active cement with packable glass ionomer when used for cementation of zirconia pediatric crowns.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
EXPERIMENTAL: Bio-active cement
Bio-active cement dispensed into the crown, and the crown was properly positioned over the tooth, cement was allowed to self-set for 20 seconds while maintaining gentle pressure on the crown, then flash cured using a light curing unit to remove excess cement, buccal and lingual surfaces were light cured for extra 10 seconds each.
|
A cement used for crown cementation, specially recommended for pediatric esthetic crowns
Other Names:
|
ACTIVE_COMPARATOR: Packable glass ionomer
Dentin conditioner was applied to the prepared crown surfaces for 20 sec, then rinsed, and dried.
Capsule was activated, mixed for 10 seconds in an amalgamator, then loaded into the capsule applier to extrude cement directly into the crown, the crown was properly positioned over the tooth, cement was allowed to self-set for 2 minutes while maintaining gentle pressure on the crown, excess cement was removed before complete setting of cement.
|
Glass ionomer cement with improved mechanical properties usually used for restoration of simple small cavities and in Atraumatic Restorative Treatment
