Cention-N, Class I Restoration, Primary Molars, Resin-modified Glass Ionomer, Salivary pH, Streptococcus Mutans Count, Zirconomer
Conditions
Brief summary
This study will evaluate the clinical performance, Streptococcus mutans count, and salivary pH for Cention-N, Zirconomer, and resin-modified glass ionomer in Class I restoration of primary molars.
Detailed description
A vital aspect of overall health is dental health. Recurrent effects of oral disease on eating, sleeping, working, and social duties are subtle and widespread, and they collectively form a hidden pandemic. The most widely used substitute for amalgam is glass ionomer cement (GIC), which has recognized the capacity to produce fluoride and played a major role in their growing application in dentistry. The components of resin-modified GICs (RMGIC) are the same as those of ordinary glass-ionomers: polyacid, water, and basic glass powder. A monomer component and related initiator system are also present. RMGICs were created when monomeric ingredients such as 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA), urethane dimethacrylate (UDMA), and bisphenol-A-glycidyl methacrylate (Bis-GMA) were added to the ionomer composition.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Children aged between 4-9 years. * Children who have Class I lesions in both the maxillary and mandibular arches. * Primary molar teeth had class I carious lesions in occlusal pits and fissures; the gap between intercuspal surfaces should not be exceeded during cavity preparation. * Primary molars free of periapical pathosis. * Primary molars free root resorption.
Exclusion criteria
* Primary molars with preapical pathosis or hypersensitivity. * Primary molars with periodontal diseases or mobile molar tooth that indicated for extraction. * Nonfunctioning teeth with no opposing dentition; heavy occlusion or signs of severe attrition; and endodontically treated teeth.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Clinical Performance of Restorations | 6 months post-restoration | Evaluation of the clinical performance of restorations using modified USPHS (FDI) criteria. It systematically grades how restorative materials (like composite resins, glass ionomers, and ceramics) perform in the mouth over time |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Streptococcus Mutans Count | 6 months post-restoration | Assessment of Streptococcus mutans bacterial count in saliva/plaque samples expressed in CFU/mL will be recorded. |
| Salivary pH Level | 6 months post-restoration | Salivary pH changes will be measured using a digital pH meter. |
