Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Patients should have two decayed premolar teeth at a proximal surface in right and left side of the mandible or maxilla. Teeth should have Class II caries in the mesial or distal. (Depth about 2 mm and less than 4 mm Bacolingual extent) Teeth should be vital with no traumatic history The teeth should not have cervical caries The teeth should not have any previous fillings. The teeth should not have a history of hypersensitivity and pulpitis The patient should not take the analgesic medication 72 hours before the test Patients should have no systemic disease that affect their periodontal and dental conditions; like Diabetes.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: deep carious lesions on teeth that need base and liner. the patient has used toothpaste and anti-allergic solution over the past two months. The patient uses anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs routinely. The patient has allergies to the restorative material in this study The patient has a history of neurological and psychological illnesses. The patient has very weak dental hygiene and rapid progression of caries. The patient has a history of disease or periodontal surgery in the selected tooth.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The sensitivity of the tooth after the cold test by using the Visual analog scale. Timepoint: baseline measurement before filling teeth, one day,two week and One month after treatment. Method of measurement: To do a cold test, a swab sprayed with cold spray and placed in the center of the teeth for 5 seconds. The patient is then asked to select 0 to 10 numbers by Visual Analogue Scale to report the severity of pain, so that he will score 10 for the most pain and choose 0 for no pain.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Tooth sensitivity to different stimuli. Timepoint: baseline measurement before filling teeth, one day, two week and One month after treatment. Method of measurement: Questionnaire-The patient responds yes or no to questions about tooth susceptibility with heat and cold and sweet dishes.
