About this trial

This randomized clinical trial compares the survival rate and clinical performance of injectable bioactive giomer composite restorations versus the Hall Technique for managing proximal carious lesions (ICDAS 3-4) in primary molars of children aged 3-8 years over a 12-month follow-up period.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

• Generally showing cooperative behaviour that could be managed by the operators.

Willing to sign the informed consent.

Accepts the follow-up period.

Moderate to low caries risk according to cariogram application

Disqualifiers

• Allergy to any restorative materials.

Patients undergoing orthodontic treatment with fixed appliances.

Patients with debilitating systemic diseases.

Children with special needs.

Treatments tested in this trial

  • giomer

    Other intervention

    restoration of proximal cavities in primary molars using an injectable bioactive composite (Giomer) material. Cavities will be prepared following minimally invasive principles, isolated appropriately, and restored according to the manufacturer's instructions using adhesive bonding. Clinical performance will be evaluated in terms of retention, marginal adaptation, secondary caries, postoperative sensitivity, and overall restoration success during the follow-up period.

  • hall technique

    Other intervention

    the hall technique is a minimally invasive method used in paediatric dentistry to manage carious primary molars.it involves sealing the decay under e preformed stainless steel crown

Treatment groups

50 Participants
are divided into 2 treatment groups
Group A: Hall TechniqueActive comparator 1 intervention
Group B: Giomer RestorationExperimental treatment 1 intervention
