Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1. Patients with at least one primary molar presenting multisurface or occluso-proximal dentine caries lesions. 2. Adjacent tooth surfaces classified as sound or initial stage carious lesions based on ICDAS merged categories at baseline. 3. Cooperative children rated as definitely positive or positive on the Frankl Behavioural Rating Scale. 4. Parents or guardians who provide consent for participation in the study.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Patients with primary molars requiring pulp therapy or endodontic treatment. 2. Patients with poor oral hygiene compliance or those unlikely to adhere to follow-up schedules. 3. Patients with carious primary molars without adjacent teeth present. 4. Patients with metabolic disorders or medically compromised conditions 5. Patients who are not willing to participate in the study

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Change in carious lesion status: Evaluation of the progression or arrest of caries on adjacent tooth surfaces.Timepoint: T0 (baseline), T1 (at 6 months post intervention) and T2 (at 12 months post intervention).

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. Restoration survival rate: Assessment of restoration longevity and integrity over the 12-month follow-up period. 2. Patient behavior during treatment 3. Patient satisfaction 4. Patient-reported pain and discomfort: Assessed immediately after treatment using a visual analog scale (VAS). Timepoint: immediately post opt and at 12 month
