A randomized clinical trial to compare silver modified glass ionomer restorations to non silver glass ionomer restorations in hypo-mineralized first permanent molars in children and to measure the amount of wear of restoration in both groups along with detecting changes in hypersensitivity in hypomineralized molars in both groups after one year follow up.

silver diamine fluoride 38% brushed on the cavity for 1 minute before adding high viscosity glass ionomer restoration in one molar
fluoride varnish brushed after adding the high viscosity glass ionomer restoration in the contralateral molar

Measuring surface wear using CAD-CAM software program
impressions were taken after treatment and after one year the two impressions were scanned. The scans were superimposed to compare the surface change. T o standardize the measurements specific selected points on the occlusal surface was used.
Time frame: after 1 year
Restoration Survival evaluation using the Atraumatic Restorative Treatment(ART) criteria
ART criterion was used to evaluate the restorations done after treatment then once again after one year.
Time frame: 1 year
Tooth hypersensitivity was evaluated with Schiff cold air sensitivity scale (SCASS)
The molars that were selected for treatment were tested for hypersensitivity. The air was delivered from a standard dental unit air syringe for 1 second at a distance of 1 cm and perpendicular to the occlusal surface of the tooth, before treatment ,after 1 week, 6 months and 12 months.
Time frame: after 1 year
