Brief Summary: This study evaluated and compared the efficacy of no caries removal and sealing with a well-adapted and crimped stainless steel crown verses selective caries removal upto soft dentin and upto firm dentin in healing and/or preventing progression of moderate to deep occlusal dentinal caries.
Detailed Description: Dental caries is a complex multifactorial disease and is one of the most prevalent diseases throughout history. It can cost a lot of money to treat and causes infection, pain and the loss of teeth. Choices for managing a carious lesion cover a spectrum of options-from complete surgical excision, where no part of the visible carious tissue is left in the tooth before a restoration is placed, to the opposite extreme, where none of the carious tissue is removed and noninvasive methods are used to prevent progression of the lesion. Thus, this study compared efficacy of no caries removal and sealing the entire lesion verses partial selective caries removal to soft and to firm dentin in healing and/or preventing progression of moderate to deep occlusal dentinal caries in previously unrestored teeth by clinical and radiographic analysis in 4-7 year old children.
