The aim of this paper was to review the history and the scientific literature published on pulpotomy medicaments and to present the findings of these studies. The review showed that pulpotomy of primary teeth has been treated with many different techniques and medicaments, that some of these approaches are controversial and that their results have presented variables of success rates in term of...

Objectives: The aim of the study was to evaluate clinical success mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) partial pulpotomy as a definitive procedure in deeply carious permanent posterior teeth using 0.12% chlorhexidine (CHX) gluconate or normal saline hemostatic agents. Materials and Methods: A pilot randomized control trial conducted on subjects with deep lesion 20 immature (10.8 ± 2.62 years). Cari...

The purpose of this study was to contrast histologically the pulp response to formocresol with the response to electrosurgical pulpotomy in a primate model. Both the primary and permanent incisors and molars were treated. Coronal pulp amputation was accomplished mechanically. The remaining pulp stumps were treated by either formocresol or momentary electrosurgery exposure. Results were evaluate...

The purpose of this research was to measure the. systemic absorption and distribution of glutaraldehyde from pulpotomy sites in dogs. Pulpotomies were performed on the incisors and canines of 5 mongrel dogs. A cotton pellet containing 20 ~1 of 2.5% "4C-(1,5) glutaraldehyde with an activity 6.25 x 105 dpm/~l was placed in each pulpotomy site for 5 rain. Whole blood samples, urine, and expired ai...

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to investigate the pulpal response of dogs' teeth after pulpotomy and direct pulp protection with MTA Angelus, ProRoot, Portland cement and white Portland cement. STUDY DESIGN Seventy-six teeth were treated with these materials. One hundred twenty days after treatment, the animals were sacrificed and the specimens removed and prepared for histological a...

Objectives: Pulpotomy works to retain a healthy tooth in the mouth till exfoliation by protecting radicular pulp. The coronal pulp must be removed, and given medication, order maintain tooths health function. Subject Methods: children who took part this clinical investigation were chosen aged 4 8 years old, following approval from Ethical Committee obtaining signed informed consent their parent...

introduction: the aim of this randomized clinical trial split-mouth study was to compare the postoperative pain following use of mineral trioxide aggregate (mta) and calcium-enriched mixture (cem) cement as pulpotomy agents in carious primary molars. methods and materials: forty-seven children aged between 6-10 years old were enrolled in this study. each child had two cariously involved primary...

: pulpotomy is an accepted treatment for the management of cariously exposed pulps in symptom free primary molars. the purpose of this study was to compare the clinical and radiological outcomes of three different single-visit vital pulp therapies including pulpotomy with electrosurgery (es), formocresol (fc) and ferric sulfate (fs) in cariously exposed primary molar teeth . materials & methods...
