Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
This study aims to determine the association between remaining dentin thickness and the inflammatory status of pulp in the primary teethTimepoint: 2 months

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To understand if we can co-relate the RDT measured from a radiograph to the degree of inflammatory changes in the coronal pulp in decayed primary molars, since this may help clinicians to determine the treatment approachTimepoint: 2 months
