Summary

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are important zinc enzyme group that responsible for reducing extracellular matrix components. It has been reported that MMPs play an important role in pulpal inflammation. The aims of this in vivo study was to compare the expression levels of MMP-2, -8 and -9 in primary molars with reversible and irreversible pulpitis and to compare the clinically and radiographically success of MTA and Biodentine materials at the end of 18 months.
