Masking description

All participants will be randomly assigned to know which one of the right or left side will be allocated randomly in either the control or the intervention group. Sequence Generation Eligible consented participants will be randomly assigned to know which one of the participants will be control or intervention group according to a sequence generated on a Microsoft Excel sheet where the intervention (I) and the control (C) are simply randomized. The table of sequence generation will be kept with the co-supervisor.

Inclusion criteria

1. \- Medically free children who will be able and cooperative in all steps of the study. 2. \- Asymptomatic primary molars with a deep carious lesion. 3. \- Vital pulp due to dental caries with no clinical sign of pulpal degeneration (spontaneous pain, fistula, mobility) prior to treatment. 3 - Preliminary radiographs indicating absence of pathologic internal or external root resorption, or any evidence of inter-radicular bone destruction. 4 - Absence of pre-operative pain or they will only have a short-term pain. 5 - No tenderness to percussion. 6-Age ranging 4-6 years.

Exclusion criteria
