Treatment of symptomatic, deep, almost cariously exposed lesions using ozone

Abstract The aim of this controlled randomized crossover study was to assess post-treatment pain and the need for root canal treatment after the use of a traditional caries removal method followed by restoration, or after an ozone method of more conservatively managing the deep caries and a restorat...
