Gluma Compared With Bonding Agent for Post-operative Sensitivity Following Composite Restorations
Sponsor: Beenish Hassan
Summary
* The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of Gluma desensitizer in reducing post-operative sensitivity following composite restorations in posterior teeth. -Patients visiting OPD will be selected after fulfilment of inclusion criteria. Patients aged 18-45 meeting inclusion criteria and presenting with active primary class I carious lesions on vital molar teeth with ICDAS score 3 will be randomly assigned into two groups: -Group A: Patients will be provided with Gluma desensitizer, Universal Bonding agent and Composite restoration and -Group B: Patients will receive Universal bonding agent and Composite restoration. -The progress of treatment will be followed up immediately (baseline) and at regular follow up visits at 1 week, 1 month and 3 months. * Post-operative sensitivity will be assessed using an air stimulus and rated on a numeric rating scale for post-operative sensitivity assessment ranging from 0 to 10.

Conditions
Interventions
Drug/Agent: Gluma Desensitizer
Gluma desensitizer applied to prepared tooth surface, followed by universal bonding agent and composite restoration. Application done during the first visit of restorative treatment. Post-operative sensitivity measured at baseline, 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months.
Drug/Agent: No desensitizer (Control)
Universal bonding agent applied followed by composite restoration without prior use of Gluma desensitizer. Post-operative sensitivity measured at baseline, 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months.
