Brief summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate and compare the clinical outcomes of three full-coronal restorations using (polymethylmethacrylate “PMMA”, 3D printable biocompatible light curing composite and direct composite Celluloid Crowns) over 3, 6, and 12 months regarding recovery failure, marginal integrity, occlusion, and gingival response. Randomized controlled clinical trial

Interventions

Eligible teeth with cavitated carious lesion needed for pulp treatment and full coverage restoration with crowns in primary teeth will be randomly divided into 3 groups: - Selected teeth crowned with poly methyl methacrylate (PMMA) based crowns fabricated using Computer-Aided Design/Computer-Assisted Manufactured (CAD\CAM), arm 1 - Selected teeth crowned with using three dimensional printable bio-compatible light curing composite crowns fabricated using three dimensional dental printer(3D Denta

Eligible teeth with cavitated carious lesion needed for pulp treatment and full coverage restoration with crowns in primary teeth will be randomly divided into 3 groups: - Selected teeth crowned with poly methyl methacrylate (PMMA) based crowns fabricated using Computer-Aided Design/Computer-Assisted Manufactured (CAD\CAM), arm 1 - Selected teeth crowned with using three dimensional printable bio-compatible light curing composite crowns fabricated using three dimensional dental printer(3D Dental printer), arm 2 - Selected teeth crowned using direct resin composite Celluloid crowns , arm 3 Each participant will be assigned to one treatment group to avoid the possible synergetic effect of the different agents. Local anesthesia was achieved. The teeth were isolated using a rubber dam. The selected extensively carious primary molars will be endodontically treated and restored with glass-ionomer cement (Fuji IX, GC, Tokyo, Japan), tooth preparation will be performed and an impression is taking, then the crowns would be fabricated in dental lab in arm 1 and arm 2, however, in arm 3 the teeth crowned using direct resin composite strip crown without impression and dental lab works. All procedures will be administered by pediatric dentist All the crowns will be evaluated at baseline and then at 3, 6, and 12 months using ‘modified FDI by two independent investigators for clinical success and quality of the crowns.
