Cairo University (CU)

Status: Unknown

Conditions: Carious Dentin

Treatments: Procedure: Partial caries removel techniques

Study type: Interventional

Funder types: Other

Identifiers

NCT03285022

Details and patient eligibility

About

The study aim to evaluate the difference between the effect of zinc modified glass ionomer and conventional glass ionomer on the success of partial caries removel technique

Full description

The zinc ion has an antibacterial effect which could increase the success of partial caries removel technique by decreasing the bactrial population .
