Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Based on the results of the present study, a new product can be developed which can be a value addition to the armamentarium of dentist practicing minimal invasive dentistry. The test product can be more specific in removal of carious tissue without causing any damage to the underlying sound tooth structure unlike the control product which is non-specific in action. Additionally, the product has the scope of being patented.Timepoint: 6 months - 1 year
