Two of the lesions will be included into the study. -clinical picture: ICDAS 4, 5 or 6 -extension in the X-ray picture: R4 (inner half of the dentin) -no pulpal symptoms of the teeth to be included into the study -maintained sensibility of the study teeth •informed consent

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Determination of the antibacterial effect of Clearfil Protect Bond on residual caries compared to Clearfil SE Bond 2. Sampling of carious material at the first visit and at a reentry after eight weeks. Samples are analyzed by microbiological and molecular biological methods (as described in the summary). Changes in microbiological composition are determined quantitatively (qPCR) as well as qualitatively. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Determination of the bacterial composition of progressed dentin caries lesions before and after partial caries removal and application of different therapy strategies | — |
