Vital Pulp Therapy with Three Different Pulpotomy Agents in Immature Molars: A Case Report
نویسندگان
چکیده
INTRODUCTION This case report describes apexogenesis treatment of three molar teeth of an 8-year-old boy using three different pulpotomy agents. METHODS Pulpotomy was performed on decayed immature molar teeth with established irreversible pulpitis and the remaining pulp was capped with either zinc oxide eugenol, ProRoot mineral trioxide aggregate or calcium-enriched mixture (CEM) cement. Teeth were restored with stainless steel crowns. RESULTS Eighteen months clinical and radiographic follow-up revealed successful preservation of pulpal vitality with continued root development in all treated teeth. CONCLUSION Based on this case report, CEM cement may be an alternative option for pulpotomy treatment of immature permanent molars.
