Brief Summary: The objective of this study is to assess and compare the possible post-operative pulpal symptoms (Spontaneous pain, pain on percussion, swelling, sinus or fistula), incidence of pulp exposure, child acceptance, chair time and radiographic success between two techniques for managing dental caries: minimal caries removal and complete caries removal in primary molars.
Detailed Description: Minimal Caries Removal (MCR) technique was described in 2015 by Chompu-inwai et al., as a treatment option for primary molars with deep carious lesions or reversible pulpitis where only soft demineralized dentin around the lateral walls of the carious lesion is removed. The aim of this study is to assess the success of such a technique in managing primary molars with asymptomatic deep caries in terms of; post-operative pulpal symptoms(spontaneous pain, pain on percussion, fistula or sinus), incidence of pulp exposure, child acceptance, chair time and radiographic success.
