The purpose of this study was clinical and radiographical evaluation of the effect of calcium hydroxide cement (Dycal) and calcium silicate cement (Biodentine) in direct pulp capping in primary teeth.
The aim of the present study is to compare Calcium Hydroxide cement (Dycal) ® and Calcium Silicate cement (Biodentine)TM as pulp capping agents in primary molars. The objective of this study include the evaluation of clinical and radiographic efficacy of Calcium Hydroxide cement (Dycal) ® and Calcium Silicate cement (Biodentine)TM, and their response in direct pulp capping treatment on primary molars during a 6 months follow up. After following the proper standardized procedure for direct pulp cap. In the current study direct pulp capping was performed using calcium hydroxide cement (Dycal)® and Calcium Silicate cement (Biodentine)TM on 60 primary teeth of children equally divided between 2 study groups randomly of both the sexes aged 4-9 years old. Complete case history was recorded in detail and intraoral periapical radiograph was also taken for teeth indicated for direct pulp capping. Written consent was obtained from the parents of participants before starting the procedure. Strict standardized procedure had been followed and the pulp capping agent (Dycal®/BiodentineTM) were applied according to the manufacturer's instructions.Each patient was evaluated clinically and radiographically for any abnormal clinical signs and symptoms at 1,3 and 6 months postoperatively.Better results for the success of the study could be relatively enhanced by close attention to rigid criteria for case selection, standardization of direct pulp capping procedure and meticulous performance of the procedure appear to be prerequisites for successful treatment.

In addition, the teeth treated by direct pulp capping had only a pin point mechanical exposure (0.5 to 1mm), for which haemorrhage control could be achieved within two minutes before proceeding with direct pulp capping.
Radiographically, there was absence of internal resorption, external resorption, periapical or furcation radiolucencies and pathology of succedenous permanent tooth follicle.
Exclusion Criteria:
Intervention: drug: Dycal, Other names: Calcium Hydroxide. Intervention Description:DPC using Dycal for direct pulp exposure was performed in 30 primary molar teeth after proper case selection.Clinical and radiographic evaluation was done.One month post operative criteria evaluated were-Clinical criteria:Spontaneous pain,Defective restoration/Recurrent caries,Sinus formation,TOP,Soft tissue swelling \& Mobility. Radiographic criteria:Defective restoration/Recurrent caries,Periapical or furcal radiolucency,Pathological internal resorption,Replacement resorption,Intracanal calcification \& Physiological resorption.The follow-up was at 3 and 6 months.
Procedure: Direct Pulp Capping using Dycal and Biodentine
Intervention: drug: Biodentine, Other names: Calcium Silicate. Intervention Description:DPC using Biodentine for direct pulp exposure was performed in 30 primary molar teeth after proper case selection.Clinical and radiographic evaluation was done.One month post operative criteria were-Clinical criteria:Spontaneous pain,Defective restoration/Recurrent caries,Sinus formation,TOP,Soft tissue swelling \& Mobility.Radiographic criteria:Defective restoration/Recurrent caries, Periapical or furcal radiolucency,Pathological internal resorption,Replacement resorption,Intracanal calcification \& Physiological resorption.The follow-up was at 3 and 6 months.
Procedure: Direct Pulp Capping using Dycal and Biodentine
The operative procedure performed as follows: i)Administration of L.A and rubber dam isolation. ii)High-speed carious enamel removal. iii)Dentine mechanical curettage. iv)Manual final dentine curettage using a spoon excavator. v)Hemorrhage control by cotton pellet moistened with 2.5% sodium hypochlorite placed over the exposure for 1-2min. vi)The exposure site would then be dried with sterile cotton pellet.The operator shall apply the pulp capping agent(dycal/Biodentine)according to the manufacturer's instructions.And then another cover of glass ionomer is applied.This would be followed by permanent restoration.
Also known as: DPC
