Summary

Objective: To compare success rates of biodentine partial pulpotomy versus formocresol pulpotomy treatment of pulpally exposed lower primary molars.

After caries removal resulted in a pulp exposure, the pulp at the exposed area is amputated to a depth of 2 mm. The wound surface is irrigated and dried. After homeostasis is obtained, an assistant drew lots to randomly allocate the case to either the biodentine partial pulpotomy (PP) or the formocresol pulpotomy (FP) group.

The follow-up for clinical and radiographic evaluation will be carried out at 6-month intervals.

Conditions

  • Pulpotomy
  • Tooth, Deciduous

Interventions

PROCEDURE

partial pulpotomy with biodentine

After caries removal resulted in a pulp exposure, the pulp at the exposed area is amputated to a depth of 2 mm. The wound surface is irrigated and dried. After homeostasis is obtained, biodentine is gently applied to the wound surface, and then covered with reinforced zinc oxide-eugenol

PROCEDURE

Formocresol pulpotomy

Following removal of the coronal pulp and achievement of homeostasis, a cotton pellet moistened with formocresol (1: 5 Buckley's solution) is placed on the amputated pulp for 5 min. The pulp stumps is then covered by IRM.
