Study Notes
Restoration of Primary Teeth in Pediatric Dentistry
- Proximal box cavity preparation is used for proximal caries with undermined marginal ridge in primary teeth.
- Conservative cavity preparation for adhesive materials differs significantly from conventional G.V. Black principles, focusing on direct access to caries and limited outline to the carious lesion.
- Class II cavity preparation follows the concept of prevention of extension and does not require removal of affected noninfected dentin.
- Class III cavity in primary teeth can be restored with adhesive restorative materials and resin-based composite with beveled enamel margins.
- Class IV cavity in primary teeth is usually restored using full coverage crowns but may be restored with adhesive restorative materials like class III cavities.
- Class V cavity outline form can be kidney or circular shaped, extending into sound dentin and enamel, and requires a convex pulpal wall.
- Various types of full coverage restorations are used for posterior and anterior primary teeth.
- Preventive resin restoration is a minimally invasive procedure for small carious lesions in posterior teeth, using composite or flowable composite and fissure sealant.
- Resin infiltration is used to arrest the progression of non-cavitated interproximal caries lesions and white spot lesions on smooth surfaces.
- Interim therapeutic restorations (ITR) and atraumatic/alternative restorative technique (ART) are conservative approaches for certain situations, endorsed by AAPD and WHO.
- Silver diamine fluoride (SDF) is used as a non-restorative management technique for the arrest of small cavities and cavity-susceptible areas on primary and permanent teeth.
- The lecture aims to describe factors to consider when restoring primary teeth and covers the principles of cavity preparation and types of cavities suitable for intra-coronal and full coverage restorations in primary teeth.
