NCT03580135

Brief Summary

The study will be self-funded by investigator and carried out on patients from outpatient clinic in Pediatric Dentistry and Public Health Department- Faculty of Dentistry, Cairo University- Egypt. The procedures will be carried out by postgraduate student Rawda Nader Fathy who has B.D.S. (2011) -Alexandria University- Egypt. The procedures will be carried out on a Knight Midmark Biltmore dental unit (Midmark Corporation 1700 S. Patterson Blvd. Suite 400 Dayton, Ohio 45409, USA) in the post graduate clinic of Pediatric Dentistry and Public Health Department- Faculty of Dentistry, Cairo University- Egypt.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Evaluation of postoperative pain after pulpotomy by asking patient and/or parents (binary yes or no)

    Binary (yes or no)

    9 months

Study Arms (2)

Propolis powder

EXPERIMENTAL

* resin (50%), * vegetable Balsam, wax * essential aromatic oils (30%) * salivary secretions (10%) * pollen(5%) * other substances (5%) including amino acids ,ethanol vitamin A, B complex, and E, minerals, steroids * flavonoids. The most important pharmacologically active constituents in propolis are flavonoids, which are well-known compounds which have antioxidant, anti-bacterial, antifungal, antiviral, and anti-inflammatory properties. * Other ingredients: carob powder (free flow agent). Contains no yeast, salt, sugar, starch, milk, preservatives or colors.

Drug: Propolis

Mineral Tri Oxide

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

* Consists of calcium oxide and silicon dioxide.When these raw materials are blended, they produce tricalcium silicate, dicalcium silicate, tricalcium aluminate, and tetracalcium aluminoferrite. * A radiopacifier (bismuth oxide) is added to the cement for dental radiological diagnosis.

Drug: Mineral Trioxide Aggregate

Interventions

One and half gram of Standardized Propolis Extract powder (Y.S. Eco Bee Farms Propolis Powder) at 100% was mixed with 1.75 mL of polyethylene glycol (Continental Chemicals, New Delhi, India) to form a thick consistency on a clean dry glass slab with a metal spatula. The paste was carried to the pulp stumps with a metal carrier and then condensed lightly to a thickness of 2 - 3 mm followed by placement of thick mix of GIC to seal the cavity and covered by st.st crown.

Also known as: propolis bee resin
Propolis powder

MTA paste will be prepared as per the manufacturers' instructions to obtain a putty-like consistency. The mixture will be delivered to the pulp stumps and condensed lightly with a moistened sterile cotton pellet to ensure a thickness of 2 to 3 mm. A thick mix of glass ionomer cement (GIC) will applied over the MTA and covered by st.st crown.

Eligibility Criteria

Age5 Years - 8 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsChild (0-17)

You may qualify if:

  • Cooperative patient
  • Healthy 5-8 years old patient with at least one carious primary molar tooth at each side of the patient's mouth.
  • Presence of at least two-thirds of the root length radiographically.
  • Restorable tooth.
  • No signs of hyperemia and hemostasis will be adequately achieved with moistened cotton pellet within 5 minutes after coronal pulp amputation.

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients eliciting history of known allergy to pollens associated with propolis.
  • Parent or guardian refusal to participate.
