About this trial
The aim of the study is to compare preformed metal crowns and 3D-printed ceromer crowns in primary molars of 4-9 years old children. The main questions it aims to answer are:
* How does 3D-printed ceromer crowns compare clincally to stainless steel crowns when restoring posterior molars? * What is the level of satisfaction of the patient with both materials? * What is the level of parental satisfaction with both materials?
Study methodology:
This study is a split-mouth clinical trial where participants will receive at least one of each materials in different quadrants of the mouth.
Eligibility criteria
Qualifiers
Children aged 4 to 9 years with at least 2 primary molars affected by deep occlusoproximal caries.
Teeth may require pulp therapy (pulpotomy or pulpectomy) and be suitable for full-coverage restoration.
Teeth must have an antagonist and be located in opposing hemiarches.
The affected primary molars must be expected to remain in the mouth for at least 12 months.
Disqualifiers
Children with systemic diseases or medical conditions affecting oral health.
Uncooperative behavior (Frankl scale 3 or 4).
Temporomandibular joint disorders or parafunctional habits (e.g., bruxism).
Absence of antagonist or adjacent teeth in the selected quadrants.
