Baseline to 12 months
Study Arms (2)
Complete Pulpotomy using mineral trioxide aggregate
ACTIVE COMPARATORTwenty-eight patients with curiously exposed permanent molars will be treated with complete pulpotomy by using Mineral Trioxide Aggregate.
Complete Pulpotomy using Simvastatin-alphatricalcium phosphate
ACTIVE COMPARATORTwenty-eight patients with curiously exposed permanent molars will be treated with complete pulpotomy by using Simvastatin -alphatricalcium phospahte.
Interventions
Inflammed coronal pulp tissue will be removed till the canal orifices and mineral trioxide aggregate placed over the amputated pulp stump.
Inflammed coronal pulp tissue will be removed till the canal orifices and Simvastatin -alpha tricalcium phosphate placed over the amputated pulp stump.
Eligibility Criteria

- Teeth exhibiting occlusal pulp exposure from primary dental caries.
- Absence of periapical lesions assessed by radiographic examination.
- Tooth demonstrating no mobility or swelling and no tenderness to percussion or palpation
You may not qualify if:
- Primary teeth.
- Teeth with irreversible pulpitis (spontaneous pain) or pulp necrosis, chronic periodontitis, cracked tooth, internal or external resorption, calcified canals, associated with sinus tract and furcation or apical radiolucency.
