Brief summary
Objectives: The new approach of pediatric esthetic dentistry intended to achieve a healthy beautiful smile rather than achieving only a beautiful smile. The objective of this study was to assess the clinical performance of ceramic Endocrowns and Zirconia crowns for the restoration of pulpotomized primary molars and parental satisfaction toward these crowns. Study design: Randomized clinical trial/split mouth design compared the clinical outcomes of two coronal restorations, on patients with bilateral carious second primary molars restoring one side with Endocrown (IPS e.max Press) and the other side with zirconia crown. Children attended Nahda University; Faculty of Dentistry clinics who need restorations screened for inclusion criteria till 20 patients are recruited (20 teeth for zirconia crown restorations and 20 for Endocrowns restorations). All children fulfilled the inclusion criteria were evaluated for factors including restoration integrity, marginal adaptation, marginal discoloration, oral health and overall clinical success at 3,6,12 months while parental satisfaction at 12 months follow up..
