Selective removal to soft dentine or selective removal to firm dentine for deep caries lesions ın permanent posterior teeth: a randomized controlled clinical trial up to 2 years.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

The aim of this randomized clinical trial was to compare selective removal to soft dentin (SRSD) and selective removal to firm dentin (SRFD) in permanent teeth. The primary outcome of the study was to compare the success rates of the two caries removal techniques. The secondary outcome of the study was to investigate whether or not calcium silicate-based material (CS) had an effect on the success rate of the treatment.

Materials and methods

Between November 2018 and March 2020, patients with deep caries lesions were invited to participate in the study. Posterior teeth (N = 165) with primary caries lesion radiographically extending ¾ of dentin and positive response to cold test were randomly selected. A total of 134 participants meeting the inclusion criteria were
