Clinical Trial Summary

To assess post operative pain and survival rate after collagen based pulpotomy versus MTA pulpotomy in children with vital primary molars.

Description:

Pulpotomy of vital primary molars is indicated when caries removal results in pulp exposure. Treatment approaches consist of devitalization using formocresol, preservation using ferric sulfate and regeneration using mineral trioxide aggregate of the remaining pulp tissue have been utilized to date. The ideal pulpotomy medicament would be biocompatible and bactericidal, in addition, to promote the healing of the root pulp and be compatible with the physiological process of root resorption. Collagen, which is available for dental implication, is already sterilized and also reinforced with antibiotic particles to efficiently aid in regeneration and repair without any contaminations. The collagen particles can be sterilized by various methods like irradiation, dry heat, and ethylene oxide, among which irradiation is the most frequently used method as it does not affect the structural stability
