Summary

The purpose of this prospective study is to compare the clinical and radiographic success of MTA and Biodentine as a medicament in vital pulp therapy in maxillary and mandibular primary molars in a pediatric population. There is limited research currently on Biodentine since it's a novel product. Biodentine is less expensive than MTA and does not cause discoloration like MTA. Biodentine may be an alternative medicament used for vital pulp therapy in primary molars.
