title: Clinical appearance of permanent successors after nonextraction treatment of grossly carious primary molars in highly anxious children.
abstract: After taking into account the local constraints, a treatment plan was devised to introduce children to dental procedures in gradual stages. An alternative nonextraction approach was adopted. Children between the ages of five and ten years were chosen for the acclimatization program; and 65 percent of their permanent successors to treated primary molars showed no defects.
