NCT05279820

Brief Summary

This study aims at comparing the outcome of partial pulpotomy and full pulpotomy in the management of carious pulp exposures in permanent teeth with a clinical diagnosis of irreversible pulpits. The primary outcome is resolution of symptoms and the secondary outcome is clinical and radiographic normality at 1 and 2 years follow up. The study design will be a double blind randomized clinical trial.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Post operative pain level measured by visual analogy scale from 0-10

    scale from 0-10

    48 hours

  • Post operative pain level measured by a numerical scale from 0-10

    scale from 0-10

    48 hours

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Clinical success as measured by clinical examination

    6, 12, 24 months

  • Radiographic success as evaluated by periapical x-rays

    6, 12, 24 months

Study Arms (2)

Partial Pulpotomy

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

After pulp exposure 2-3 mm of the pulp tissue will be amputated, a calcium silicate based material will be placed over the pulp and the tooth will be restored.

Procedure: Partial pulpotomy

Full Pulpotomy

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

After pulp exposure the entire coronal pulp to the level of canal orifices will be amputated , calcium silicate based material will be placed over the pulp and the tooth will be restored.

Procedure: Full Pulpotomy

Interventions

Partial pulp tissue amputation

Partial Pulpotomy

Full Pulpotomy

Full Pulpotomy

  • Tooth responds positively to cold test
  • Clinical symptoms of irreversible pulpits
  • Tooth is restorable and can be restored with coronal restoration
  • Bleeding normally is confirmed after pulp exposure
  • hemostasis could be achieved within 8 minutes

Masking Details
The participant will not be informed whether the treatment performed was partial or full pulpotomy the outcome assessor will be blinded to the type of treatment performed, and evaluation of the radiographs will include masking the crown so that the procedure cannot be identified.
