Summary

In this study, the aim is to compare manual and rotatory pulpectomy techniques on 100 primary mandibular molars on children between the ages of 4 and 8 years. The plan is to conduct a randomized controlled trial with a 1:1 ratio for group allocation at a teaching university pediatric dentistry clinic between January 2021 and December 2021. Two manual systems, as well as two rotary systems, will be randomly assigned. The adult manual system used will be K-file and the adult rotary system will be K3. The pediatric manual system used in this study will be Kedo-SH, while the pediatric rotary system will be Kedo-S. The observed outcome measures in this study are the following: 1) instrumentation and filling time; 2) filling quality by radiographic evaluation; 3) postoperative pain levels using the visual analog scale at 12 and 24 hours; and 4) frequency of complications (e.g. fistulas, thinning of the mesiodistal walls, periapical or furcation radiolucency) after a 3-, 6-, 9-, and 12-month follow-up.
