ABSTRACT
The treatment of a large dentine caries, which seemed to be a small pit-and-fissure carious lesion on the occlusal surface of the permanent mandibular right first molar in a 6-year-old boy, is presented. The treatment included the filling of the root canals and the sealing of the cavity with composite resin. Underlying periodontal tissue healing could be radiographically observed at the 14-month follow-up. It is possible that a better visual examination, with careful cleaning and drying of teeth, may improve occlusal caries detection. Dentists should examine bitewing radiographies carefully for occlusal demineralization. As radiographies are probably an effective method of lesions caries diagnosis, they should be recommended at appropriate ages to aid early detection of these lesions.
RESUMO
O tratamento de uma cárie grande do dentine, que pareça ser um lesion carious do poço-e-pit-and-fissure pequeno na superfície occlusal do primeiro molar da direita mandibular permanente em um menino de 6-year-old, é apresentado. O tratamento inclui o enchimento dos canais da raiz e do sealing da cavidade com resina composta. O tecido peridental subjacente que healing podia radiographically ser observado na continuação de 14 mês. É possível que uma examinação visual melhor, com limpeza cuidadosa e secagem dos dentes, pode melhorar a deteção occlusal da cárie. Os dentistas devem examinar radiographies do bitewing com cuidado para o demineralization occlusal. Porque as radiografias são provavelmente um método eficaz do diagnóstico da cárie dos lesions, devem ser recomendados em idades apropriadas ajudar à deteção adiantada desta lesão.
