Management of Occlusal Caries Using Silver Modified Atraumatic Restorative Treatment Versus Atraumatic Restorative Treatment

April 20, 2020 updated by: Mennatallah Sameh Ahmed Farouk Abdelhamid, Cairo University

Clinical and Radiographic Evaluation After the Use of Silver Modified Atraumatic Restorative Treatment Versus Atraumatic Restorative Treatment in the Management of Occlusal Caries of Primary Molars in Preschool Children: Randomized Clinical Trial

Silver modified atraumatic restorative treatment (intervention) or atraumatic restorative treatment (Control) will be used to manage occlusal caries in preschool children then the molars will be evaluated at the interval of 3,6 and 12 months clinically and 6 and 12 months radiographically

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Aim of the study:

To evaluate the clinical and radiographic outcomes after the use of silver modified atraumatic restorative treatment versus atraumatic restorative treatment in the management of occlusal caries in primary molars in preschool children.

Outcomes:

Pain (provoked or spontaneous) OHRQoL(oral health related to quality of life) Parental esthetic perception Failure of restoration Caries density in radiograph

Time:

3, 6 and 12 months

Study design:

A randomized clinical trial

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Questioning parent about whether the child have pain between follow up intervals (provoked or spontaneous)
Time Frame: 12 months
Pain reported-Pain history that occurs after treatment at any point (will be recorded at the follow up intervals) Outcome will be binary (yes/no)
12 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
OHRQoL(oral health related to quality of life)
Time Frame: 3 months
The Early Childhood Oral Health Impact Scale (A-ECOHIS) Score 0-52. There will be 13 questions each question with a score 0-5 where 0 = excellent, 1=very good, 2=good, 3=fair , 4=poor and 5= unknown so the less the score the better is the oral health related to quality of life.
3 months
Questioning parents about their aesthetic perception
Time Frame: 3 months
Parent reported (parent is asked whether he/she is accepting the tooth appearance or not) Outcome will be binary (yes/no)
3 months
ART assessment criteria (Codes 00-90)
Time Frame: 12 months

Failure of restoration according to the code in the ART assessment criteria (Codes 00-90).

Code 00 or 10 are considered successful, codes 11-40 are classified as failures, and codes 50-90 are assigned in case the tooth was unavailable for evaluation

12 months
Caries density in radiograph
Time Frame: 12 months
Pixel grey value
12 months
