Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Eligible teeth with cavitated carious lesion needed for pulp treatment and full coverage restoration with crowns in primary teeth will be randomly divided into 3 groups:

- Selected teeth crowned with poly methyl methacrylate (PMMA) based crowns fabricated using Computer-Aided Design/Computer-Assisted Manufactured (CAD\CAM), arm 1
- Selected teeth crowned with using three dimensional printable bio-compatible light curing composite crowns fabricated using three dimensional dental printer(3D Dental printer), arm 2
- Selected teeth crowned using direct resin composite Celluloid crowns , arm 3

Each participant will be assigned to one treatment group to avoid the possible synergetic effect of the different agents.

Local anesthesia was achieved. The teeth were isolated using a rubber dam. The selected extensively carious primary molars will be endodontically treated and restored with glass-ionomer cement (Fuji IX, GC, Tokyo, Japan), tooth preparation will be performed and an impression is taking, then the crowns would be fabricated in dental lab in arm 1 and arm 2, however, in arm 3 the teeth crowned using direct resin composite strip crown without impression and dental lab works.
All procedures will be administered by pediatric dentist
All the crowns will be evaluated at baseline and then at 3, 6, and 12 months using ‘modified FDI by two independent investigators for clinical success and quality of the crowns.

Efficacy
Statistical methods / analysis
Sample size was calculated using g-power 3.1 software. The significance level was set at 0.05 and the power of the study was set to be 0.80.
Based on a one-way Anova test, it was estimated that 75 patients were required to demonstrate an effect size (0.4).

Statistical analyses will be performed using the statistical software SPSS for Windows (version 25.0, SPSS Inc.,Chicago,IL,USA).

- The normality of distribution of the date will be verified by Kolmogorov-Smirnov normality test.
- If the data were normally distributed, One-way Anova test will be applied. Deviations from baseline will be tested for significance with the Bonferroni post hoc test.
- if the data were not normally distributed, kruskal wallis test will be applied. Deviations from baseline will be tested for significance with the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Matched Pairs Test.
- Interrater reliability will be tested using Cohen's Kappa measure.
- The level of significance will be set at 0.05.
