Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the 18-month clinical performance of a multimode adhesive (Scotchbond Universal Adhesive, 3M ESPE, St Paul, MN, USA) in primary molars after partial carious removal. This randomized clinical trial will include subjects (5-10 year-old children) selected at two university centers (UFSM and FOUSP). The sample will consist of 132 primary molars presenting active cavitated carious lesions (with radiographic involvement of the outer half of the dentin), located on the occlusal and occlusal-proximal surface. The sample will be randomly divided into two groups according to bonding approach: etch-and-rinse or self-etch strategy. The restorations will be clinically followed every 6 months for up to 18 months using the USPHS modified criteria for clinical evaluation. Survival estimates for restoration longevity will be evaluated using the Kaplan-Meier method.

Study Groups

Self-etch approach

Application of universal adhesive as self-etch mode

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Self-etch approach

Intervention Type OTHER

The adhesive will be vigorously agitated on the entire enamel and dentin surfaces for 20 seconds, according to the manufacturer's recommendations.The brush will be scrubbed on the dentin surface under manual pressure followed by gentle air thinning for five seconds and finally light curing for 10 seconds.

Etch-and-rinse approach

Application of universal adhesive as etch-and-rinse mode

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Etch-and-rinse approach

Intervention Type OTHER

After acid etching for 15 seconds, the sound and caries-affected dentin will be kept moist.The adhesive will be vigorously agitated on the entire enamel and dentin surfaces for 20 seconds, according to the manufacturer's recommendations.The brush will be scrubbed on the dentin surface under manual pressure followed by gentle air thinning for five seconds and finally light curing for 10 seconds.
