Ferric Sulfate and Sodium Hypochlorite Pulpotomies in Vital Primary Teeth

Sponsor: Marmara University

Summary

This study aims to compare the clinical and radiographic success of two commonly used pulpotomy agents, ferric sulfate (FS) and sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl), in vital primary molars. Pulpotomy is a widely used vital pulp therapy procedure in pediatric dentistry to preserve primary teeth until their natural exfoliation. The study will include children aged 4-9 years who previously received pulpotomy treatment using either FS or NaOCl at Marmara University Faculty of Dentistry. No additional treatment will be performed as part of this study. Patients will be followed during routine clinical visits at 6, 12, and 24 months. Clinical outcomes such as pain, mobility, and infection, as well as radiographic findings including resorption and radiolucency, will be evaluated. The results of this study are expected to provide evidence for the effectiveness of these materials and support clinical decision-making in pediatric dental practice.
