Filter by:Direct pulp capping technique is one of the oldest known treatments for exposed pulp tissue, and there is a continuous requirement for the most efficient materials to be used in this approach. Successful pulp capping is the usual way to preserve the vitality of tooth and avoid root canal treatment or surgical tooth extraction.
Indirect pulp capping (IPC) is a treatment that preserves pulp's vitality. Several materials have been used for this procedure. The aim of this study is to evaluate the radiographic and clinical outcomes of TheraCal LC (Bisco Inc., Schaumburg, IL, USA) and to compare it with mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) (Pro Root MTA, Dentsply Tulsa, Johnson City, TN, USA) and calcium hydroxide [Ca(OH)2] (Dycal, Dentsply De Trey Konstanz, Germany) biomaterials in IPC treatment.
Calcium hydroxide and mineral trioxide aggregate have been used in vital pulp therapy with variable outcomes recorded by different study. They will be compared when used for direct pulp capping in cariously exposed mature permanent teeth.
Biodentine® is a most recent material for direct pulp capping. The aim of this study is to determine the 3 months success rate (defined as clinical and radiographic successes together) of direct pulp capping realized with Biodentine®.
This prospective study compares the use of indirect pulp therapy and mineral trioxide aggregate pulpotomy for pulp therapy of the primary molar with dental caries approaching the pulp.
