Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Percentage of primary teeth with control necrotic pulp by clinical examination	The primary outcome was evaluated using clinical evaluation methods. Two pediatric dentists who are blind to treated teeth will conduct the clinical evaluation. A third examiner will be consulted if there is a disagreement between the results of the first two. Clinical success will be judged to have occurred when there are no reports of pain, abscess, fistula, or mobility inconsistent with chronological age.	Up to 18 months
Primary	Percentage of primary teeth with control necrotic pulp by radiographic examination	The primary outcome was evaluated using Radiographic evaluation methods. Two pediatric dentists who are blind to treated teeth will conduct the clinical evaluation. A third examiner will be consulted if there is a disagreement between the results of the first two.
