METHOD OF TREATING DENTIN CARIES IN PERMANENT TEETH IN CHILDREN WITH INCOMPLETE SOLID TISSUE MINERALISATION (VERSIONS) Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC A61C5/02 A61B6/03 A61N5/06 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention refers to medicine, particularly to dentistry, and can be used for treating dentin caries in permanent teeth in children with incomplete mineralisation of solid tissues. That is ensured by densitometric determination of a circumpulpar dentin density by means of a dental computer tomograph or by a fluorescent analysis using Kavo-diagnodent apparatus. Densitometric or fluorescent findings are used to conduct a treatment of dentin caries. If the densitometric densities are less than 1,900 H.U. or fluorescent values are less than 41.85 standard units, the decay cavity is ozonised, and a bottom and walls of the decay cavity up to a dentino-enamel junction are coated with a self-curing paste of calcium hydroxide and temporary filled using glass-ionomer cement (GIC). The dentin state is re-assessed 2-3 months later. If densitometry findings show an increase of mineralisation as compared to an initial by not less than 17%, or if the fluorescent findings show an increase by not less than 50%, the GIC and calcium-containing material are removed from the decay cavity, and the final filling is performed.

EFFECT: versions of the presented method provide higher clinical effectiveness ensured by the controlled intensity of the physical-chemical metabolism in enamel and dentin, timely manipulations leading to the high activity of pulp cells and replacement dentin formation.
