Summary

Pulpotomy of vital primary molars is indicated when caries removal results in pulp exposure. Treatment approaches consist of devitalization using formocresol, preservation using ferric sulfate and regeneration of the remaining pulp tissue using mineral trioxide aggregate and recently Biodentine have been utilized.

The ideal pulpotomy medicament would be biocompatible and bactericidal, in addition, to promoting the healing of the root pulp and be compatible with the physiological process of root resorption.

Searching for more pulpotomy agents, Collagen, a protein that's present abundantly in humans, is an important component of connective tissues and performs multiple functions including wound healing.

Enamel and dentin contain Collagen as one of the components in their organic ground matrix.

Collagen has been used widely in dentistry in periodontal and implant therapy as scaffold for preventing the migration of epithelial cells and encouraging wound repopulation by cells with high regenerative potential.

The Collagen available for dental implication is already sterilized and also reinforced with antibiotic particles to efficiently aid in regeneration and repair without any contamination. The collagen particles

Conditions

  • Carious Exposure of Pulp

Interventions

DRUG

sterile medicated collagen particles, Biofil-AB ,Eucare Pharmaceuticals Pvt. Ltd, Chennai, India

Collagen based pulpotomy will be applied (sterile medicated collagen particles, Biofil-AB ,Eucare Pharmaceuticals Pvt. Ltd, Chennai, India)according to the manufacturer's instructions and gently placed over the pulp stumps to a thickness of 2 mm

DRUG

Biodentine (Septodont, Saint-Maur-des-Fossés, France)

Biodentine (Septodont, Saint-Maur-des-Fossés, France) will be applied according to the manufacturer's instructions and placed over the radicular pulp with the help of a suitable sterile amalgam carrier. Gentle condensation of the mix will be done in the pulp chamber with a moistened cotton pellet.
