The overall aim of this clinical investigation is to assess the clinical performance and safety of composite restorations cured with fast curing mode (5 seconds with 2000 mW/cm²) in primary molars.
Consent of a legal representative (usually parents)
2 deciduous molars in the need of direct filling therapy class I and/or II in different quadrants (primary or secondary caries, filling loss)
Classification of caries: caries of all sizes in deciduous molars are included unless they can be treated with fissure sealing (ICDAS 3, 4, 5)
Sufficient language skills of legal representative and children
Cognitive impairment not age-appropriate
Sensitive tooth (pain at night, irritation-persistent pain, buccal swelling, percussion sensitivity)
Teeth with severely resorbed roots (anormal tooth mobility)
Direct pulp capping
Parallel
Fast curing mode
DeviceComposite restoration is cured with Turbo mode (5 seconds with 2000 mW/cm²).
Conventional curing mode
DeviceComposite restoration is cured with High mode (10 seconds with 1200 mW/cm²).
Postoperative pain
The assessment of postoperative pain will be done by using the Wong-Baker Faces Pain rating Scale and includes questions about type and duration of pain, intensity of pain and the type of stimulus causing the pain. Values of 0 and 2 in the Wong-Baker Faces Pain Rating Scale are considered as no pain and values \>2 as pain.
