Comparing MTA Pulpotomy to Root Canal Treatment in Management of Permanent Molars With Irreversible Pulpitis in Children
Sponsor: Ain Shams University
Summary
Dental caries, highly prevalent amongst children, can cause pulpitis. Coronal pulpotomy provides an easier, cost-effective, conservative and biologically-driven treatment option compared to endodontic treatment in mature permanent teeth with irreversible pulpitis. The aim of the current study is to evaluate postoperative pain, clinical and radiographic outcomes of MTA pulpotomy compared to root canal treatment in children's first permanent molars suffering from irreversible pulpitis.
