No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to assess the effectiveness of propolis as a hemostatic agent in full pulpotomy for mature permanent molars with irreversible pulpitis, compared to sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl). The study also compares how bioceramic putty performs compared to mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) as pulpotomy dressing materials.

Participants will be randomly allocated into four groups (15 patients each) according to the hemostatic agent and dressing material used:

* Propolis + bioceramic putty
* Propolis + MTA
* Sodium hypochlorite + bioceramic putty
* Sodium hypochlorite + MTA Bleeding time and postoperative pain will be recorded. Clinical and radiographic success will be evaluated at 1, 3, and 6 months following treatment.
