ECC Management
• Management of dental caries includes identification of an
individual’s risk for caries progression
• Understanding the disease process for the individual
• Active surveillance to assess disease progression
-this disease progression should be managed with
appropriate preventive services, supplemented by
restorative and medical management when needed.
![Page 4: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Where to start
• Evaluate the patient’s behavior
• Existing restorations
• Radiographs
• Presence of white spot lesions
• Are the caries localized or generalized
![Page 5: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
White Spot Lesions
![Page 6: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Surgical Management vs. Medical Management
• Surgical Management is the removal of infected enamel,
along with surrounding tooth structure and then restored
with a synthetic plastic restorative material.
• Medical management is the application of a medicament
over the carious lesions to arrest the caries or remineralize
carious lesions that are localized to enamel.
![Page 7: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Patient Behavior
• Frankl 1: total lack of
cooperation
• Frankl 2: signs lack of
cooperation
• Frankl 3: accepts treatment with
caution
• Frankl 4: no signs of resistance,
very cooperative
![Page 8: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Current Ideology
• Widespread acceptance of remineralization
• Minimally invasive dentistry less traumatic
experience for patient.
• Establish a dental home for a patient by 6 to
12 months of age
![Page 9: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Remineralization
• A natural process in which salivary proteins,
enzymes and cellular components promote
ion deposition into demineralized enamel to
strengthen the affected enamel from and
prevent cavitation.
![Page 10: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Fluoride
• Safe and effective preventive method
advocated by the AAPD.
• decrease in caries of 55-60% within the last 50
years with water fluoridation.
• The long-term use of fluoride has reduced
oral healthcare costs for children up to 50%
![Page 11: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Fluoride
• When communal water fluoridation is not an option,
systemic fluoride supplements can be taken to
achieve similar affects.
• Review dietary sources of fluoride for the patient
prior to prescribing supplements.
• Fluoride varnish for in-office application
![Page 12: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Fluoride
• Over the counter products are available in the form of toothpastes,
gels and rinses which provide significant cariostatic benefits
• Children should be monitored with these products
• The products available:
-1.23% acidulated phosphate fluoride
-5% neutral sodium fluoride fluoride varnish
-0.09% fluoride mouth rinse
-0.5% fluoride gel/paste
![Page 13: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Casein Phosphopeptide amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP)
• Slows the progression of caries and remineralizes enamel
subsurface lesions
• Gets incorporated into plaque, saliva and enamel pellicle to
inhibit further colonization of S. mutans
• The calcium and phosphate supersaturate the saliva and plaque,
buffer the pH and therefore aid in remineralization
![Page 15: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
CPP-ACP Indications
• Remineralization of early carious lesions
• Prophylactic agent prior to bonding
orthodontic brackets
• Reduced dentinal sensitivity
• Can be delivered in the form of tooth mousse,
chewing gum, mouth rinse and toothpaste
![Page 16: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
CPP-ACP
![Page 17: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
ITR
• Interim Therapeutic Restoration
• When circumstances do not permit for traditional cavity
preparations
• Used to stabilize caries prior to definitive restorations
• Beneficial for step-wise caries excavation in children with
multiple open carious lesions prior to definitive
restorations
• Reduces the overall cariogenic levels in the oral cavity
![Page 18: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
ITR
• Caries removal can be done using hand or rotary
instruments without pulp exposure.
• Removing maximum peripheral caries minimizes leakage.
• The preparation can be restored with a glass ionomer or
resin modified glass ionomer cement
• Follow-up care with topical fluoride is beneficial in high
caries risk dental populations
![Page 19: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
ITR
![Page 20: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
ART
• Atraumatic/Alternative restorative technique
• Endorsed by the World Health Organization (WHO) in
populations that have limited access to dental care.
• Treatment can be provided in non-traditional settings to
provide provisional restorations.
• Given the circumstances that ART does not require follow-
up care, it can be misinterpreted as a final restoration
![Page 21: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
ITR vs. ART
• ITR utilizes similar techniques of ART but it
has different therapeutic goals.
• ITR is used to restore and prevent carious
lesions in young patients, uncooperative
patients, or patients with special needs.
![Page 22: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Silver Diamine Fluoride (SDF)
• A newly recognized product used in the medical
management of Dental Caries and to reduce dentin
hypersensitivity.
• A medicament that is composed of silver ions,
ammonia and fluoride in aqueous solution.
• An antimicrobial liquid that functions to arrest caries
and prevents the further progression of the disease
![Page 23: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
SDF-mechanism of action• Reduce dentin hypersensitivity
-High concentrations of aqueous silver creates a protective
squamous layer over the exposed dentin
-This protective layer will partially plug the dentinal tubules and
thus lead to decreased sensitivity
• Caries Arrest
-once applied to a decayed surface, a squamous layer of silver
conjugate proteins forms which leads to increased resistance to acid
degradation.
-hydroxyapatite and fluoroapatite form on the exposed dentin
matrix
![Page 24: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Clinical Evidence of SDF• Caries arrest is significantly increased with the
application of SDF twice a year.
• Darkening of the entire lesion is a clinical
indication of caries arrest
• SDF has greatly outperformed fluoride varnish
for caries arrest, and is equivalent or better than
some glass ionomer cements
![Page 25: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Indications for SDF
• Severe early childhood caries
• Restorative treatment challenged by
behavioral or medical management.
• Patients with carious lesions that may not all
be treated in one visit
• Difficult to treat carious lesions
![Page 26: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

Clinical Application of SDF
• Thoroughly air dry the lesion or use gauze and cotton rolls
• A thin layer of vasoline may be applied to the surrounding soft
tissue to prevent from tissue staining.
• Apply one drop of the SDF to the lesion and allow for it to soak for
1-3 minutes
• The excess can be removed with the same cotton roll used to
isolate.
• Advise the patient to refrain from food and water intake for one
hour after application

Hall Technique
• A non-invasive technique for the treatment of
carious primary molars
• The caries is sealed under the prefabricated
stainless steel crown.
• Sealing the caries from the external environment
prevents it progression further to the pulp
![Page 40: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)

Hall Technique
• No need for drilling and anesthesia.
• Developing areas limited access to dental
care.
• Relatively new treatment, research still
underway to validate widespread clinical
success of this procedure.
![Page 42: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
When to Restore/Advantages
• Removing cavitations before the caries progresses to
the pulp
• Stopping the progression of tooth demineralization
• Restoring the integrity of tooth structure
• Preventing tooth movement due to loss of tooth
structure
![Page 43: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Risk Factors of Restorative Dentistry
• Decreased longevity by making the teeth
more prone to fracture
• Increased incidence of recurrent caries
• Restoration failure
• Pulp exposure during caries removal
![Page 44: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Amalgam
• A commonly used restorative material for over
150 years
• Strong clinical evidence suggests the survival
rate of amalgam of 3.5-7 years in primary molars.
• Treatment is highly efficacious in class I and class
II restorations
![Page 45: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Amalgam
• Does not bond to tooth structure still less
microleakage
• Clinical failure attributed to manipulation and
preparation
• Bulk fractures occur with premature loading.
• Rapid setting amalgam recommended for pediatric
patients
![Page 46: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Composite
• An esthetic restorative material used in the place of
amalgam.
• Consists of a resin matrix and chemically bonded fillers
• Large filler size provides strength to restoration
• Small filler size allows for greater polishability and
esthetics
![Page 47: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Composite
• Technique sensitive Dry working field
• Increased incidence of micro leakage
• Dental adhesives necessary for proper resin
bonding
![Page 48: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Composite AAPD Recommendations
• Strong clinical evidence of success for class I
and class II composite restorations in primary
and permanent molars
• Enamel and dentin bonding agents decrease
marginal staining and detectable margins of
various composites
![Page 49: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Glass Ionomers• Used in dentistry as restorative cements,
liners, and luting cements
• Favorable properties: chemical bonding to
enamel and dentin, thermal expansion similar
to tooth structure, biocompatibility, fluoride
release, moisture insensitivity
![Page 50: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)

![Page 51: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Glass Ionomers
• Fluoride released is taken up by surrounding
tooth structure increased resistance to
bacterial infiltration.
• Fluoride release is beneficial in patients with high
caries risk.

Stainless Steel Crowns
• Full coverage preformed crowns
• Primary molars where two or more surfaces are
carious
• Restoration of choice for a primary fractured molars
• Patients who have partially missing tooth structure
due to caries or submersion
• Greater longevity versus amalgam restorations
![Page 56: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
Stainless Steel Crown Preparation
• Occlusal reduction of 1.25mm-2mm
• Interproximal reduction to remove contact completely
• Facial and lingual line angles should be rounded.
• Crown size should be chosen and tried on to the prepared
tooth to evaluate for marginal seal, occlusion, and arch
relationship.
• The crown should be cemented on with a GI or RMGI luting
cement.
• Bite stick can be used to aid in fully seating the crown.

Zirconia Crowns• Based on a recent publication this is restoration
of choice in among 46% of pediatric dentists for
primary incisors
• Provides superior esthetics and option for
multiple shade selection
• Retention found to be a 80% after 24-36 months
![Page 58: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
Zirconia Crowns
• Precision in preparation of tooth
• More tooth structure is removed
as opposed to a SSC or ASC.
• Greater chance of pulp exposure
and pulp treatment
• Treatment based on patient
behavior and parental choice
![Page 59: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
Anterior Strip Crowns
• Technique sensitive but highly esthetic restorations for
primary incisors
• Caries removed, interproximal space created, celluloid
crown form placed for fit
• Typically bonded with resin or RMGI. Restorative material
fills the crown form and placed onto the preparation
• After polymerization, crown form is removed.

Resin Infiltration
• Arrest the progression of non-cavitated interproximal
carious lesions.
• Low viscosity resin penetrates into the porous lesion
body of enamel caries.
• Evidence shows that it slows or reverses the
progression of non-cavitated lesions .
• Indicated to restore white spot lesions

Sealants
![Page 63: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
Sealants
• Pit and fissure caries account for 44% of caries in
primary teeth.
• Literature suggests success is 86% after one year
and 57% at 48-54 months.
• Sealed teeth that are missing a part of sealant
material have the same caries risk as teeth that
have never been sealed before.
![Page 64: Management of ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry · 2018-09-09 · ECC and Minimally Invasive Dentistry Ranbir Singh DMD MPH NYU-Lutheran Phoenix Pgy1 Pediatric Dental Resident](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070718/5eddda68ad6a402d66691141/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
AAPD Guidelines for Sealants
• Should be placed on pits and fissures judged to be at risk
for dental caries or with incipient lesions
• Carefully clean pits and fissures without mechanical
preparation
• Resin based sealants require a moisture controlled
environment.
• Glass ionomer sealants can be used as transitional sealants
where moisture control is not possible

Closing Remarks
• Know your patient!!
• Management techniques of ECC are
determined on a case by case basis
• Minimally invasive dentistry is ideal
for prevention and treatment of ECC
in the uncooperative child.
