Brief summary
The aim of the present study is to evaluate Mineral Trioxide Aggregate and Biodentine in direct pulp capping, partial pulpotomy, and pulpotomy in primary molars.
Detailed description
Screening of patients will continue until the target population is achieved. Identifying and recruiting potential subjects is achieved through patient database in Pediatric Dentistry department. A total of 150 primary molars from healthy subjects will be selected from the Pediatric Dentistry and Dental Public Health outpatient clinic, Faculty of Dentistry, Ain shams University. Subjects will be assigned randomly into two different treatment groups as follows: MTA Group (1): 1. Group 1(A): MTA Direct Pulp Capping. (n=25) 2. Group 1 (B): MTA Partial Pulpotomy. (n=25) 3. Group 1 (C): MTA Complete Pulpotomy. (n=25) BiodentineTM Group (2): 1. Group 2(A): BiodentineTM Direct Pulp Capping. (n=25) 2. Group 2 (B): BiodentineTM Partial Pulpotomy. (n=25) 3. Group 2 (C): BiodentineTM Complete Pulpotomy. (n=25)
