This Study Aims to Clinically Assess and Radiographically Measure the Formed Dentin Bridge Over the Pulp, Utilizing Three-dimensional Imaging Following the Application of Nanohydroxyapatite Versus Biodentine After Selective Caries Removal Over One Year Follow-up

Lead Sponsor:

Cairo University

Conditions:

Deep Carious Lesions

Partial Caries Removal

Eligibility:

All Genders

18-40 years

Phase:

NA

Brief Summary

This clinical trial aims to evaluate dentin bridge formation over the pulp following selective caries removal in permanent teeth with deep carious lesions (ICDAS scores 4-6). A total of 50 patients wi...

Detailed Description

This randomized controlled clinical trial is designed to investigate the effectiveness of two bio-inductive materials-nanohydroxyapatite and Biodentine-in promoting dentin bridge formation following s...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Patient-related criteria:
  • Adult patients (age: 18-40 years) of both genders.
  • Good oral hygiene.
  • Willing to sign the informed consent.
  • Cooperative patients who accept the follow-up period.
  • Tooth-related criteria:
  • Posterior permanent caries (ICDAS 4-6).
  • Radiographically, caries is extending 50% of dentine with a radiopaque layer between the carious lesion and the pulp chamber.
  • Sensible teeth according to the cold pulp test.
  • Negative response in percussion test.

Exclusion

  • Patient-related criteria:
  • Allergy to any of the restorative materials.
  • Patients undergoing orthodontic treatment with fixed appliances.
  • Pregnant women.
  • Patients with debilitating systemic diseases.
  • Patient who frequently uses analgesics or any drugs that could mask the pain.
  • Tooth-related criteria:
  • Teeth with previous restorations.
  • Spontaneous pain or prolonged pain (more than 15 s) after the sensitivity test (cold test), which would indicate irreversible pulpitis.
  • Negative sensibility tests, periapical radiolucency, and sensitivity to axial or lateral percussion.
  • Mobile teeth, indicating periodontal disease or trauma.
  • External or internal resorption.
  • Chipped teeth or Cuspal loss
