An interventional study of Partial Pulpotomy and Complete pulpotomy in Pulp Disease, Dental, sponsored by Cairo University. Not yet recruiting. Open to participants aged 4 Years to 7 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2024-08-14.
Sponsored by Cairo University · Not applicable, Interventional, and Treatment
Evaluating the clinical and radiographic success of partial pulpotomy compared to complete pulpotomy in vital primary second molars with reversible pulpitis using NeoPUTTY™ (MTA).
Children with symptoms of reversible pulpitis in their second primary molar will be chosen to be enrolled in the study, and then randomly allocated into two groups. One group will undergo partial pulpotomy and the other group complete pulpotomy and followed up for 12 months. The blinding of the operator is not possible due to the nature of the technique used. Trial participants, outcome assessors and statistician will be blinded.
125 studies on the registry are indexed under Dental Pulp Diseases; 38 are open to participants now.

After removing caries high-speed handpiece with water coolant using a round diamond bur. Once there is an exposure, the bur is changed with another sterile one with which the superficially inflamed pulp tissue will be gently removed to a depth of 1-3 mm beneath the pinpoint pulp exposure that occurred at the end of caries removal. A sterile cotton pellet with saline will be placed with light pressure for 2-3 minutes to achieve hemostasis.
After removing caries with a large round bur, the access cavity will be opened. Excavation of inflamed coronal pulp tissues will be done using a sharp excavator. A sterile cotton pellet with saline will be placed with light pressure for 2-3 minutes to achieve hemostasis.
