Primary Outcome
|
Outcome |
TimePoints |
Assessing for caries arrest:
Positive outcomes - Dark, hard, and black lesions with no pain or infection
Negative outcomes -Progression of the lesion, a yellow, brown, soft lesion with or without pain or infection.
Assessing dental hypersensitivity: (Schiff Cold Air Sensitivity Scale (SCASS) and / or VAS scores will used to assess the presence of hypersensitivity).
Positive outcomes – Improvement in SCASS and / or VAS scores
Negative outcomes- No improvement or worsening of SCASS and / or VAS scores

Brief Summary
Modification(s)
|
The study is a Randomized, Parallel Group
Trial Evaluating and comparing two agents namely- Silver Diamine Fluoride (SDF)
and Universal Bonding Agent (UBA) in reducing dental caries and dental
hypersensitivity in decayed hypoplastic (weak) permanent molar teeth. Both
agents shall be applied in children aged 6- 14 years in MIH teeth with ICDAS scores
1-4. Participant and Outcome Assessor Blinded and same children will be
assessed for continuation/ arrest of dental caries and dentinal
hypersensitivity at regular intervals of 3 weeks, 3 months, 6 months and 9
months. The primary outcome measures of the study are caries arrest, assessed
by changes in color and texture, and a decrease in dental hypersensitivity
measured by predefined SCASS and VAS scores. The results indicated that out of 243
teeth, 212 teeth (111 belonging to the SDF group and 101 belonging to the UBA
group) were available for follow-up at the end of the 9-month follow-up period.
The ICDAS categorization and Schiff Cold Air Sensitivity Scale (SCASS) of the
available 212 teeth were recorded. The study also included intra- and
inter-group comparison of both agents pre-operatively and post-operatively at 9
months, which was summarized. The statistical analysis showed no statistically
significant reduction in the ICDAS scores for both the SDF and UBA groups.
However, there was a statistically significant reduction in the sensitivity
score (Schiff score) between the pre- and post-values for both the SDF and UBA
groups.
The rate of reduction between the study
groups showed no statistical difference, indicating that both had a similar
effect. |
