Brief summary
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to assess the effectiveness of propolis as a hemostatic agent in full pulpotomy for mature permanent molars with irreversible pulpitis, compared to sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl). The study also compares how bioceramic putty performs compared to mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) as pulpotomy dressing materials. Participants will be randomly allocated into four groups (15 patients each) according to the hemostatic agent and dressing material used: * Propolis + bioceramic putty * Propolis + MTA * Sodium hypochlorite + bioceramic putty * Sodium hypochlorite + MTA Bleeding time and postoperative pain will be recorded. Clinical and radiographic success will be evaluated at 1, 3, and 6 months following treatment.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Participants of both genders falling within the age range of 20 to 45 years. * Presence of vital mature permanent molars diagnosed as irreversible pulpitis. * Confirmation of vital bleeding pulp tissue in all canals following complete pulpotomy.
Exclusion criteria
* Non-vital teeth. * Teeth with Immature roots. * Uncontrolled pulpal bleeding persisting beyond 10 minutes post-application of sodium hypochlorite as a hemostatic agent. * Insufficient bleeding post-pulp exposure, indicative of pulp degeneration.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |

| Bleeding time | During hemostasis (0-10 minutes) | Recording the bleeding time of different participants during hemostasis. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Post-operative pain | 24 hours, 3 days, 1 week | Recording the post-operative pain using Heft-Parker visual analogue scale Minimum value: None Maximum value: Maximum possible The higher values indicate more post-operative pain |
