Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
The researcher himself will do the restorations of 40 teeth that will be divided into two groups randomly (20 restorations in each group) and the following will be done in the study group:
- Vitality test (using ethyl chloride on a cotton pellet on the middle third of the facial surface of the tooth)
- Apply local anesthesia
- Isolation with cotton rolls and retraction cords or using rubber dam
- Mechanical preparation and complete caries removal until reaching a clean and caries-free surface
- Applying glass ionomer cement (GIC) BioUnion Filler (Caredyne-Restore, GC Corporation, Tokyo, Japan) to every cavity in the intervention group and filling the entire cavity until a smooth surface is reached and it is consistent with the original tooth surface
- Finishing and polishing after 24 hours
follow ups for clinical evaluation of the restorations will be in (3 months, 6 months, 9 months, and 12 moths)

Study design
Purpose of the study
Treatment
Allocation to intervention
Randomised controlled trial
Procedure for enrolling a subject and allocating the treatment (allocation concealment procedures)
The intervention will be determined by opening a sealed envelope -after finishing the cavity preparation- determining what material will be used for this tooth.
Methods used to generate the sequence in which subjects will be randomised (sequence generation)
Allocation will be done using coin-tossing for the first eligible tooth for the study in the patient mouth starting from the upper right quadrant
Masking / blinding
Blinded (masking used)
Who is / are masked / blinded?
The people receiving the treatment/s
