Summary

Maintaining dental pulp vitality is crucial for tooth preservation and functionality. Untreated dental caries may lead to pulp necrosis and infection, affecting children's growth and well-being. The first permanent teeth erupt around 6 years old. These are the first molars (FPM), which are frequently affected by caries, soon after their eruption.

In the present application, our main goal is to determine whether two treatment groups (MTA and TheraCal) are long-term effective in preserving pulp vitality among children' FPM affected by deep caries.
