Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Determining the clinical and radiographic success or failure of stainless steel crown placement after a 12 month period. The success of the crown placement will be assessed clinically for gingival health, plaque accumulation, marginal integrity, wear of the crown and occlusion. Radiographically, it will be assessed by the presence of secondary caries, furcation radiolucency, widening of periodontal ligament and bone resorption Timepoint: Clinical and radiographic evaluation will be conducted at intervals of 1, 3, 6 and 12 months

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Assessing the oral health related quality of life of the patients undergoing stainless steel crown technique.Timepoint: A modified version of the Early Childhood Oral Health Impact Scale (ECOHIS) questionnaire will be administered to the parents at intervals of 1, 3, 6 and 12 months
