Conditions
Interventions
Egyptian MTA
* Complete caries removal from the cavity. * The liquid of Egyptian MTA (Toothmate) will be mixed with powder according to the manufacturers' instructions. * The capping materials will be placed with the passive application on the deepest part of the cavity. Only light pressure will be applied on the MTA mixture using a wet cotton pellet to ensure adaptation of the material onto the dentin. * A light-cured glass ionomer cement base will be applied in the cavity . * Selective enamel etching will be applied on enamel only. * The one-bottle universal adhesive system bond will be applied on enamel and dentine. * A Nano hybrid composite resin material will then be incrementally inserted into the cavities.
Biodentine
* Complete caries removal from the cavity. * Gently tapping a capsule of Biodentine (Septodont) on a hard surface to loosen the powder, then opening the capsule, Detaching a single-dose container of liquid and gently tapping on the sealed cap to force all the liquid down the container, Twisting cap to open, Then Pouring 5 drops from the single-dose container into the capsule, Then Closing the capsule and Placing it on a mixing device for 30 seconds, Then Collecting Biodentine with the instrument supplied in the box. * The capping materials will be placed with the passive application on the deepest part of the cavity. * A light-cured glass ionomer cement base will be applied in the cavity . * Selective enamel etching will be applied on enamel only. * The one-bottle universal adhesive system bond will be applied on enamel and dentine. * A Nano hybrid composite resin material will then be incrementally inserted into the cavities.
Calcium Hydroxide (Ca(OH)2)
* Complete caries removal from the cavity. * According to the manufacturers' instructions, Dispensing equal volumes of base and catalyst pastes on the parchment paper pad provided. Using a Dycal (Dentsply) Liner applicator, stirring immediately to mix thoroughly until a uniform color is achieved, complete mixing occurs within 10 seconds, using the ball-pointed Dycal Liner applicator or similar instrument, the mix will be placed directly on the cavity. * The capping materials will be placed with the passive application on the deepest part of the cavity. * A light-cured glass ionomer cement base will be applied in the cavity . * Selective enamel etching will be applied on enamel only. * The one-bottle universal adhesive system bond will be applied on enamel and dentine. * A Nano hybrid composite resin material will then be incrementally inserted into the cavities.
