Interventions

Intervention1: Direct pulp capping: success of direct pulp capping by by evaluating the vitality of the pulp by using thermal, electric pulp tests and visualize the formation of reparative dentin usin

Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1. Preoperative presence of a deep carious lesion 2. Age group – 18 -30 years 3. Systemically healthy co-operative patient, permanent molars with carious lesions restricted to the occlusal and proximal surface (radiographic) 4. Positive response to thermal and electric pulp tests, responsive to cold test 5. No radiographic evidence of periapical pathology (PAI Score = 2mm)

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Continuous or spontaneous pain 2. Immunocompromised patient 3. Presence of a swelling or a sinus tract adjacent to the tooth, tenderness on percussion 4. Presence of pathologic tooth mobility 5. Teeth with pulp necrosis 6. Presence of excessive haemorrhage from exposure site indicating progressive inflammation or requiring pulpotomy, 7. Radiolucency in periapical or furcation area (PAI Score = 3mm) 8. External or internal resorption 9. Obliteration of canal. 10.In patient who are not willing to undergo pulpotomy and would prefer pulpectomy
