NCT03135626

Brief Summary

This randomized clinical trial was conducted to examine and compare the effectiveness of pulpotomy in primary molars treated with calcium silicate based materials including Biodentine and two different mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) products (white ProRoot® MTA and MTA Plus®). Ferric sulfate pulpotomy was selected to represent the control group. 116 primary molars in 29 children were treated by pulpotomy and followed for a period of 24 months.

You may qualify if:

  • Patients were eligible if they were 5 to 7 years old, healthy and cooperative, and had at least four carious primary molars, each of which was in a different quadrant and required a pulpotomy. The criteria for the selection of the teeth to be included in the study were presence of deep caries, presence of at least two-thirds of the root length radiographically and being restorable.
