The technique of IPC has been said to be outdated and shown to have lesser success rate.
However in cases where CaOH dressing is given and arrested caries are left behind
After a week, if the patient is asymptomatic, the dressing is replaced with pure silver filling and the layer of CaOh is left behind
However one must remember that the CaOH base cannot withstand occlusal stress under the amalgam filling..in such cases a GIC base above the CaOH cement is given..If thisis not done, there maybe a chance of fracture in near future.
