Study Arms (3)
• Group I: Conventional complete Pulpotomy using MTA (control group).
NO INTERVENTIONMTA putty material will be placed using premixed capsule which will be triturated according to manufacturer's instructions. MTA will be placed in a 2-3 mm layer above the pulp tissue using an amalgam carrier and gently packed to the canal orifice using a condenser, then it will be covered by moistened cotton pellet for 2 minutes to achieve the initial setting, then the cotton pellet will be removed. A layer of resin modified glass ionomer cement will be placed and the tooth will be restored using light cured composite filling material .
• Group II: LLLT following complete pulpotomy.
ACTIVE COMPARATORafter achieving homeostasis, LLLT will be applied using diode laser of 810 nm wave length with energy of 2 J/cm2 under a continuous mode with power output of 100 mW for about 10 sec with laser tip size 600 μm and 2 mm away from the canal orifice, Then MTA will be placed and the tooth will be restored as in group I.
• Group III: Cryotherapy following complete pulpotomy.
ACTIVE COMPARATORafter achievement of homeostasis, the cryotherapy will be applied using small piece of shaved sterile ice wrapped with sterile piece of gauze (0° Celsius) which will be placed over the pulpal tissue in the pulp chamber. After approximately 60 seconds, the molten ice will be removed, then MTA will be placed and the tooth will be restored as in group I.
Interventions
using new device direct on the pulp tissue
