Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To evaluate and compare proximal contact tightness using dental floss and proximal contours (cervico-occlusal overhangs) assessed by intraoral periapical radiographic analysis following restoration of primary molars using four different matrix systems, namely Automatrix, FenderMate, Promatrix, and T-bandsTimepoint: Baseline—

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1.To evaluate the patient comfort using Wong Baker FACES Pain rating scale while restoring primary molars using the Automatrix matrix system. 2.To evaluate the patient comfort using Wong Baker FACES Pain rating scale while restoring primary molars using the FenderMate Matrix System. 3.To evaluate the patient comfort using Wong Baker FACES Pain rating scale while restoring primary molars using the Promatrix Matrix system 4.To evaluate the patient comfort using Wong Baker FACES Pain rating scale while restoring primary molars using the T- bands matrix system. 5.To compare the difference in patient comfort while restoring primary molars using the Wong Baker FACES Pain rating scale using automatrix, FenderMate , Promatrix & t bands matrix systems matrix systems.
