“…14,15 The technique has been described by Frencken and coworkers in a World Health Organisation booklet, 9 who said the two main principles of ART were removing carious tooth tissues using only hand instruments and restoring the cavity with a material that sticks to the tooth. The reasons for using hand instruments rather than electric handpieces are that it makes restorative care accessible to all populations.…”

B Ba ac ck kg gr ro ou un nd d Atraumatic Restorative Treatment (ART) was introduced a decade ago as a minimal intervention treatment for caries in unindustrialised countries, but UK general dental practitioners (GDPs) may also be using this technique. O Ob bj je ec ct ti iv ve e This study aimed to determine the materials and techniques used by a group of UK GDPs to treat caries in primary teeth. . M Me et th ho od d A questionnaire, designed to determine GDPs' use of materials and techniques in the restoration of caries in primary teeth, was distributed to 600 GDPs in Scotland and England, with an explanatory letter and reply-paid envelope. The questionnaire included colour illustrations of two carious cavities in primary molar teeth and a request that respondents draw the cavity outline that they would use on the illustrations. The cavity outlines were assessed independently by two examiners. All other data were collated and analysed. R Re es su ul lt ts s 390 usable replies were received, a response rate of 65%. Of the respondents, 99% treated child patients and 42% of respondents were aware of ART. For treatment of a small Class II cavity, 37% drew a cavity outline without extension beyond removal of caries and a majority suggested use of an adhesive material (51% glass ionomer, 13% compomer). For cavity preparation, 47% of respondents used a drill, 10% an excavator and 41% used both. For treatment of a large occluso-lingual cavity, again most used an adhesive technique (44% glass ionomer, 12% compomer) for its restoration, while 50% used a drill, 7% an excavator and 42% used both for cavity preparation. C Co on nc cl lu us si io on n Most respondents used adhesive materials for restoration of caries in primary molars, but, despite 42% of respondents stating that they were aware of the treatment, 'true' ART was adopted by fewer than 10% of respondents.

“…This is because of its chemical adherence to dental tissue, coefficient of thermal expansion similar to that of a tooth (9), biocompatibility properties (10), and caries protective effect through the release of fluoride (10,11), which has antibacterial properties (3,12) and potentiates remineralization that may prevent the development of secondary caries (13). Furthermore, GIC restorations may act as a rechargeable fluoride release system (14,15 ried success rate for retention from 63% to 100% (16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23). ART procedure has been performed by few researchers in clinical dental setup on children (7).…”

Objective: The objectives of this clinical study were to: evaluate the survival of occlusal atraumatic restorative treatment (ART) restorations, on a longitudinal basis, in the primary molars of children; and compare the success rate of ART restorations placed in school environment and in hospital dental setup. Study design: One dentist placed 120 ART restorations in 60 five-to seven year-olds who had bilateral matched pairs of carious primary molars. A split-mouth design was used to place restorations in school and in hospital dental setup, which were assigned randomly to contralateral sides. Restorations were evaluated after 6 and 12 months using the ART criteria. Results: The survival rate of ART restorations placed in school environment was 82.2% at the 6-month assessment and 77.77% at the 12-month assessment. The success rates of ART restorations placed in hospital dental setup in the 2 assessments were 87.7% and 81.48%, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference between the ART restorations placed in school environment and hospital dental setup in both assessments (P>O.05). The main cause of failure was the loss of restoration. Conclusions: The one year success rate of occlusal ART restorations in primary molars was moderately successful. The ART technique's done in hospital dental setup was not proven to be better than restorations placed in school environment.

Evaluation of the survival of ART sealants after 2 years ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to assess the survival of ART sealants applied to the pits and fissures in occlusal surfaces of permanent molars and premolars of schoolchildren 8-13 years aged from a public school in Lima after two years of intervention. Students of The Stomatology School Roberto Beltran were trained in the technique by a team of faculty members (kappa>0.80).Of 177 sealants applied, we assessed the survival of 133 sealants (loss of 15 schoolchildren) using the WHO criteria. The complete or partial retention of sealants at the end of the evaluation was 10.6%. 85.6% of the pieces with sealant did not develop carious lesions. We found no associations between the development of caries with the condition of oral hygiene (p>0.05), but there were associations between types of teeth and development of caries (p<0.05). The use of ART technique showed encouraging results for the prevention of dental caries; training and experience of the provider could play an important role in the retention of sealants using ART.
