Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Group 1 Atraumatic restorative treatment with 38% SDF application. Group 2 Conventional GIC restoration with 38% SDF application  In Group 1 after caries excavation , 38% Sliver diamine fluoride will be applied to arrest caries over which GIC restoration will be done using ART and will be followed for 7 days . 30 days , 3 months and 6 months to evaluate survival of restoration and arrest of caries. In Group 2 after caries excavation , 38% Sliver diamine fluoride will be applied to arrest caries over which conventional GIC restoration will be done and will be followed for 7 days . 30 days , 3 months and 6 months to evaluate survival of restoration and arrest of caries. 
Comparator Agent  Group 3 Atraumatic Restorative Treatment without 38% SDF application. Group 4 Conventional GIC restoration without 38% SDF application  In Group 3 after caries excavation , 38% Sliver diamine fluoride will not be be applied to arrest caries over which only GIC restoration will be done using ART and will be followed for 7 days . 30 days , 3 months and 6 months to evaluate survival of restoration and arrest of caries. In this Group 4 after caries excavation , 38% Sliver diamine fluoride will not be applied to arrest caries, only conventional GIC restoration will be done and will be followed for 7 days . 30 days , 3 months and 6 months to evaluate survival of restoration and arrest of caries.

Brief Summary  
    This novel approach brings together the capability of Silver Diamine Fluoride (SDF) to kill bacteria with that of Glass ionmer cement (GIC)  restoration to seal the tooth and cut off nutrients needed for bacterial growth. As SDF could enhance cariostatic action and prolong the survival of restoration in  oral health care settings for resource management  in  cost effective way.
   To evaluate clinical performance and longevity of  SDF applied GIC restorations and assess survival rate using ART and conventional GIC method over a period  of 6 months  for prevention and arrest of caries.
   Parallel arm RCT will be conducted - the patients will be randomized into 4 groups and accordingly intervention will be given. The follow up will be done for  6 months.
   Individual between 18 to 65 years with  class 1 caries  of the permanent posterior teeth.
   Study will be conducted at department of Public Health Dentistry Government college of dentistry , Indore, India.
