Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
* Does the Hall Technique provide a faster and pain-free treatment compared to ART?
* How do the outcomes of both techniques impact children's acceptance and behavior? Researchers will compare the Hall Technique, which uses preformed metal crowns without caries removal, to Atraumatic Restorative Treatment, which uses hand instruments to selectively remove carious tissue.
Participants will:
* Receive treatment using either the Hall Technique or ART in a single session.
* Attend follow-up visits to monitor the effectiveness and acceptance of the treatment.
* Complete assessments on their experience and comfort during and after the procedure.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
ART
Atraumatic Restorative Treatment
A sharp excavator will be used to remove soft demineralized carious tissue from the patient\'s primary molar 2-The molar will then be restored with capsulated Glass Ionomer in accordance to ART procedure.
3-Each capsule will be mixed for ten seconds and used for restoring teeth isolated by cotton rolls.
4-After the cement is cured, excess material will be removed with an excavator and a carver.
5-The occlusion will be tested for interferences with carbon paper. A layer of varnish coat will be applied to the surface and light-cured for 20 seconds .
HALL technique
Hall technique
The procedure involves assessing the occlusion, contact points, and tooth shape. If contact points are present, orthodontic separators will be placed between the primary molars to create space for crown fitting, with the child seated upright to maintain airway safety. After 3 to 5 days, the separators will be removed, and loose plaque and debris will be cleared.
The correct crown size will be selected, ensuring it doesn't impinge on adjacent teeth, and will be filled with glass ionomer cement. The child will be instructed to bite down for two minutes to ensure proper seating. Excess cement will be removed, and contacts will be flossed. Any initial occlusal discrepancies are expected to resolve within weeks.
