The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD), founded in 1947, is the not-for-profit professional membership association representing the specialty of pediatric dentistry.
Its 10,800 members put children first in everything they do, and at the highest standards of ethics and patient safety..
The disease of early childhood caries (ECC) is the presence of 1 or more decayed (noncavitated or cavitated lesions), missing (due to caries), or filled tooth surfaces in any primary tooth in a child 71 months of age or younger..
The ART approach involves the use of hand instruments only to remove carious tooth substance and then restoring the cavity and sealing any adjacent enamel fissures with usually a conventional glass polyalkenoate (ionomer) restorative cement (GIC)..
Atraumatic restorative treatment (ART) is a method of managing dental caries based on 2 pillars: sealants for preventing carious lesions in pits and fissures, and restorations for cavitated dentine carious lesions.
ART uses only hand instruments for opening/enlarging the cavity and for removing carious tissue..
Atraumatic restorative treatment (ART) is a minimally invasive treatment technique for restoring teeth by means of hand instrumentation for decay removal and fluoride-releasing adhesive materials (glass ionomer) for filling..
Because circumstances do not allow for follow-up care, ART mistakenly has been interpreted as a definitive restoration.
ITR utilizes similar techniques but has different therapeutic goals.
Interim therapeutic restoration more accurately describes the procedure used in contemporary dental practice in the United States..

ART is used in cases when there are obstacles to reaching dental care units and has been proven to have high success rates in primary and permanent dentitions.
ITR is used as a temporary restoration that will be replaced with a more definitive one..
ATR is used in cases where there are obstacles to reaching the dental care units.
ITR, on the other hand, is used for treating patients in dental clinics in order to control the progression of caries or to manage certain health characteristics of the patient.Mar 7, 2019.
The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD), founded in 1947, is the membership organization representing the specialty of pediatric dentistry.
The membership provides care to millions of our nation's infants, children, adolescents, and persons with special health care needs..

Atraumatic restorative treatment (ART) is a method for cleaning out tooth decay (dental caries) from teeth using only hand instruments (dental hatchet and spoon-excavator) and placing a filling..
ITR is used as a temporary restoration that will be replaced with a more definitive one.
ITR is used in cases when the ideal dental treatment cannot be performed.
Conventional glass polyalkenoate (ionomer) restorative cement (GIC) is the material of choice that has been used for ART and ITR.Mar 7, 2019.
Conventional glass polyalkenoate (ionomer) restorative cement (GIC) is the material of choice that has been used for ART and ITR.
This is because of its fluoride release properties, including its ability to bond to enamel and dentine, its pulpal biocompatibility, and its ease of manipulation.Mar 7, 2019.
Type VIII – GIC for atraumatic restorative treatment (ART) Type IX – GIC used for Pediatric and geriatric restorations..
ART was firstly introduced by the dentist Jo Frencken in 1985.
It was introduced in Tanzania, where access to dental treatments using drills was restricted by limited dentist availability and a lack of electricity and or piped water..
