Study summary

The success of pulpotomy treatment is affected by the type of biologically active material used.The effects of MTA and biodentine are compared in mature permanent teeth with caries exposure.It is expected that pulpotomy using biodentine will have a high success rate in caries exposed mature teeth compared to mineral trioxide aggregate.

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Start is estimated for May 2025; primary completion for Jun 2025, 1 month later.

Of 158 non-industry interventional studies with no phase under Pulpitis, half reached primary completion within 16 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 9 and three quarters within 28. This study's planned 1 month is below that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 158 studies reached it within 16 months; a quarter within 9 and three quarters within 28.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Apr 24, 2025, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
