Summary

The aim of this study was to compare post-operative pain following total pulpotomy (TP) and root canal treatment (RCT) in mature molar teeth with severe symptoms indicative of irreversible pulpitis. To compare the traditional pulpitis classification with the Wolters system in evaluating post-operative pain.

Materials and Methods: Sixty-four mature mandibular molar with symptomatic vital pulps in patients aged 18-60 years were included and were classified according to the Wolters (moderate/severe pulpitis) and the traditional pulpitis classification (reversible/irreversible pulpitis). The teeth randomly divided into 2 groups. RCT was performed, using standardized protocols. TP was performed to the level of the canal orifices, and haemostasis was achieved with 2.5% NaOCl. 3 mm layer of MTA was placed as the pulpotomy agent. The treated teeth were restored with glass ionomer cement followed by composite. Pain was recorded 6, 12, 24, 48, 72 hours and 7 days after treatment. The data collected were statistically analyzed
