An interventional study of Selective caries removal and Stepwise caries removal in Caries, sponsored by Postgraduate Institute of Dental Sciences Rohtak. Status unknown at 1 site in India. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 60 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2020-05-05.
Sponsored by Postgraduate Institute of Dental Sciences Rohtak · Not applicable, Interventional, and Treatment
The aim of this clinical study is to compare and evaluate the Success of Selective Caries vs Stepwise Caries Removal Techniques in treatment of dental caries.
The patient will be selected as per the pre-defined eligibility criteria. Written informed consent will be taken from each consenting participant. Initial caries excavation will be done under rubber dam isolation. The patient will then be randomly allocated to two groups: selective removal to soft dentin or stepwise caries removal. Composite restoration with glass ionomer liner will be then placed in both groups. Additional complete caries excavation will be done in the stepwise caries removal group after six months.
1,109 studies on the registry are indexed under Dental Caries; 197 are open to participants now.
This study's planned enrollment of 146 is above the median of 60 across 916 interventional studies indexed under Dental Caries.

Exclusion Criteria:
In selective caries removal to soft dentine, after caries excavation application of liner will be done on pulpal floor. Teeth will then be filled with composite resin material.
Procedure: Selective caries removal
The stepwise caries removal is a two step procedure. The first step is similar to selective caries removal to soft dentin group. In the second step, after 6 months lesion will be re-entered to remove remaining carious tissue till firm dentin is encountered. Once all the caries is removed from floor of cavity a liner followed by final restoration with composite will be performed.
Procedure: Stepwise caries removal
After caries removal restoration of tooth will be performed
After caries removal restoration of tooth will be performed
Clinical success
Clinical success will be judged by following criteria * Positive response on vitality test. * Absence of pain on percussion and any other signs and/or symptoms of irreversible pulpitis and pulp necrosis Criteria for failure will be * Negative response on pulp vitality test. * Tenderness to percussion and teeth exhibiting any clinical signs and/or symptoms of irreversible pulpitis and pulp necrosis.
Time frame: Baseline to 12 months
Radiographic Success
Absence of periapical alterations (radiolucency at furcal or periapical region).
Time frame: Baseline to 12 months
