Stock powder and liquid Fuji IX from GC japan

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Antibacterial
Dentin samples incubated on 2 culture mediums and total bacterial count by counting colony forming units will be counted. Higher number means Less antibacterial effect
Clinical performance
"Modified United States Public Health Service Ryge Criteria" for Direct Clinical Evaluation and rating of Restoration.measuring color match, anatomic contour, marginal integrity, cavosurface marginal discoloration, secondary caries, surface texture, gross fracture. each outcome will be graded Alpha(A) for the highest score, Bravo(b) for moderate score, and Charlie(C) for the lowest score.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The study is a randomized clinical trial that assesses the clinical success and the antibacterial effect on carious dentine of glass ionomer when modified with Chitosan and/or Titanium dioxide nano particles vs the control group of modification with Chlorhexidine as control when used in primary molars
Detailed Description
Participants will be recruited from the acquitted to the clinic of pediatric dentistry department , Faculty of Dentistry of Ain Shams University. random allocation of the participants where indirect pulp capping is indicated so that modified Glass ionomer would be used as the filling material. partial removal of caries is done then caries sample would be taken and sent for a microbiological evaluation and then, cavity dimensions is recoded, finally placement of the modified glass ionomer in the prepared cavity. In a total period of 9 months the patients will be followed every 3 months for clinical evaluation and in the final visit the filling would be removed and another bacterial sample would be taken for comparison, then a permanent filling is placed.
