About this trial
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the adaptation of occlusion and bite force after zirconia crown restoration in children with pulp-treated primary molars. The main questions it aims to answer are:
How does occlusion adapt after placement of zirconia crowns?
Does bite force change following crown restoration?
Participants will:
Undergo routine pulp treatment and restoration of primary molars with zirconia crowns.
Have bite force and occlusal contacts measured using the T-Scan digital occlusal analysis system before and after crown placement.
Eligibility criteria
Qualifiers
Children aged 6 to 9 years.
Both boys and girls can participate.
A pulp-treated primary molar (pulpotomy) that is healthy and shows no pain, no swelling, no mobility, and no radiographic problems (such as internal resorption or infection).
The lower first permanent molar must be erupted.
Disqualifiers
Children with medical conditions or who are uncooperative during dental care.
Children with parafunctional habits, such as teeth grinding (bruxism), thumb-sucking, or other habits that may affect bite-force measurements.
Teeth that are close to falling out, have severe root resorption, or need extraction.
Teeth with deep cavities below the gum line that prevent proper crown placement.
