Outcome of Partial Pulpotomy in Moderate and Severe Pulpitis

The aim of the study is to compare the outcome of Partial Pulpotomy in mature permanent teeth with moderate and severe pulpitis. OBJECTIVE: Primary objective- to compare the difference in clinical and radiographic outcome of partial pulpotomy in mature permanent teeth with moderate and severe Pulpitis. Secondary objective- To evaluate and compare OHRQoL and postoperative pain after Partial Pulpotomy in teeth with Moderate Pulpitis and Severe Pulpitis. Subjects of age group 15 to 40 years will be included and divided into two groups 1. Permanent mature molars with Moderate Pulpitis 2. Permanent mature molars with Severe Pulpitis

COMPARATIVE EVALUATION OF DIRECT PULP CAPPING AND COMPLETE PULPOTOMY IN MATURE PERMANENT MANDIBULAR MOLARS WITH CLINICAL SIGNS INDICATIVE OF MODERATE PULPITIS

Title: Comparative evaluation of direct pulp capping and complete pulpotomy in mature permanent mandibular molars with clinical signs indicative of moderate pulpitis: Randomized Clinical Trial Rationale: According to new Wolters pulpal clinical classification, Moderate pulpitis exhibit symptoms of prolonged reaction to cold, which can last for minutes, possibly percussion sensitive and spontaneous dull pain which are correspond to irreversible pulpitis. Complete/partial pulpotomy are suggested to be the choice of treatment for such cases. It has been suggested that infection is often the cause of inflammation, an inflamed pulp should be able to heal if the source of infection is eliminated as in other body organs. Removal of trigger (i.e. caries) followed by application of biocompatible material which makes a good seal in a sterile environment has potential to allow for recovery and healing of the inflamed pulp tissue which is thought to be beyond recovery. Based on this premise, DPC can be considered as minimally invasive approach for the management of teeth with inflamed pulps in place of the conventional approach of partial/complete pulpotomy in adults Research Question Does Direct Pulp Capping have comparable outcome with complete pulpotomy in mature permanent teeth with clinical signs indicative of moderate pulpitis?
