Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Clinical criteria: Tooth evaluated for presence / absence of pain, swelling, tender on percussion, pathological mobility & gingival sinus tract opening or purulent discharge Radiographic criteria: Evaluated for radiographic radiolucency , furcal involvement, peri apical radiolucency and internal or external resorption. The increase in dentin thickness will be measured using care stream software attached to Radiovisuography keeping cement-enamel junction as a reference .Timepoint: 3, 6,9,12,18, 24 months | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
