Brief Summary
The goal of pulp therapy in the primary dentition is to retain the primary tooth as a fully functional part of the dentition, allowing at the same time for mastication, phonation, swallowing, and the preservation of the space required for the eruption of the permanent tooth. The premature loss of primary teeth may cause changes in the chronology and sequence of eruption of permanent teeth. Maintenance of primary teeth until physiological exfoliation prevents deleterious habits in children. The primary objectives of cleaning and shaping the root canal system are removing soft and hard tissue containing bacteria, providing a path for irrigants to the apical third, supplying space for medicaments and subsequent obturation, retaining the integrity of radicular structure. The choice between pulpotomy and pulpectomy is generally based on the severity of the symptoms clinically and/or radiographically. When indicated, the primary tooth pulpotomy is a relatively simple procedure with generally good clinical results.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Clinical Success
Defined as teeth that exhibited no symptoms of pain, tenderness to percussion, swelling, sinus tract, or pathological mobility
clean and shape with a scale and an average of 3 weeks
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Radiological success
obtain the evaluation in about 5 days
Study Arms (3)
Control group
EXPERIMENTALControl Group (n= 15): the root canals were prepared manually with K-files (Dentsply-Maillefer, Ballaigues, Switzerland) and "step back technique" up to size #35.
Group 1
EXPERIMENTALGroup 1 (n= 15): the root canals were instrumented with rotary LightSpeed LSX instruments (Discus Dental, Culver City, CA, USA). They were used to complete the canal preparation to a size #50 for the anteriors and molar teeth to size #40.
Group 2
EXPERIMENTALGroup 2 (n= 15): root canals were instrumented with ProTaper Next (Dentsply Maillefer, Ballaigues, Switzerland) using X1, X2 to X3. 0.5% NaOCl was used for irrigation.
Interventions
For the control group the root canals were prepared manually with K-files and "step back technique" up to size #35. For this group were administered Tylenol
For the Group 1, LightSpeed LSX rotary instruments (Discus Dental, Culver City, CA, USA) were used to complete the canal preparation to a size #50 for the anteriors and molars to size #40. After procedures were administered Tylenol
For the group 2 the root canals were instrumented with ProTaper files using X1, X2 (21mm) to X3 (21mm). 0.5% NaOCl was used for irrigation, the original protocol suggested by ProTaper for permanent teeth was simplified for this study. After clinical procedures Tylenol were administered
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- the aims and requirements of the study were freely accepted by the parents
- primary molars with at least 11.0 ± 1.0 mm of working length
- Treatment was limited to patients in good health;
- All teeth had vital and non-vital pulps without a sinus tract;
- Excess of bleeding during a pulpotomy;
- Presence of enough coronal tooth and root structure;
- No prior pulpectomy treatment on the involved tooth,
- absence of perforation in the internal and/or external furcation area and
- No analgesics or antibiotics were used before the clinical procedures began.
You may not qualify if:
- had a positive history of antibiotic use within the past month,
- diabetic, hemophilic
- if the tooth had root resorption or been previously accessed and initiated a pulpectomy.
