Brief Summary: Brief summary

Background

A large proportion of dental practice involves the treatment of caries in the permanent dentition In USA alone tooth related pain is annually responsible for 15 billions days lost through sickness We do not know whether a stepwise excavation is better or worse compared with one final completed excavation in adults with deep caries with or without pain A deep carious lesion is in the risk zone of being pulpal exposed during excavation

Aim

The aim of the CAP-1-trial is to investigate the beneficial effects of stepwise excavation during two visits versus óne completed excavation of deep caries in permanent teeth with or without pain

Patients

Consecutive patients contacting the units involved in the CAP trial for the treatment of deep caries The trial will comprise 300 patients

Design

CAP-1-trial is a randomised patient- and observer-blinded multicenter trial with two parallel intervention groups Patients that fulfill the inclusions criteria and none of the exclusions criteria will be centrally bloc-randomised in Copenhagen Trial Unit Copenhagen DK and stratified by age and pain Allocation ratio is 11

Interventions and products

Patients are allocated for stepwise excavation in two visits or final excavation in one visit The patients will not be informed about the result of the randomisation ie the type of intervention Therefore all patients will be contacted for two visits The second visit in the stepwise excavation group wil be used for the second and final excavation and for the performance of a permanent restoration The second visit in the one step excavation group will solely be used for the performance of a permanent restoration The interventions in both groups are completed following 8-10 weeks after the randomisation

A temporary calcium hydroxide based material is used in both groups Dycal The temporary restoration material glas-ionomer cement is used Ketac Molar in between visits and a resin material is used for the final restorationHerculite
