Active clinical trials for "Dental Pulp Exposure"

To compare radiographic and clinical outcomes and survival of mineral trioxide aggregate/ferric sulfate (MTA/FS) pulpotomy and root canal therapy (RCT) in carious vital primary maxillary incisors.

Aim of the study: To compare the clinical and radiographic outcomes of mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) and Biodentine as vital pulp therapy materials (pulpotomy) preserving the vitality of traumatized immature anterior permanent teeth. Materials and Methods: fifty vital traumatized immature anterior permanent teeth exposed with symptomatic /asymptomatic pulpitis were included in the study according to inclusion criteria and were equally divided in two groups. Included teeth were randomly assigned to either a control group (MTA 25 teeth) or a test group (Biodentine 25 teeth). After conducting pulpotomy and covering pulp stumps with the MTA and Biodentine, treated teeth received permanent restorations. Blinded clinical and radiographic evaluations were performed at different time intervals (base line immediate postoperative, 6, 12 and 18 months) according to clinical and radiographic criteria of success. Data were recorded and analyzed.

This study presents a clinical and histological evaluation of human pulp tissue responses after direct capping using RetroMTA. Seven teeth were subjected to pulp exposure, direct capping with RetroMTA, and restoration with a composite resin. Seven months later, the teeth were clinically and radiographically evaluated. The teeth were then extracted and subjected to histological processing and evaluation.

This study aimed to evaluate the clinical and radiographic success of pulpotomy in cariously exposed vital immature first permanent molars using calcium hydroxide and calcium silicate-based material (Biodentine ™). After a 12 months postoperative period, Biodentine ™ proved very useful as a successful pulpotomy agent in young permanent teeth.

Background: Dental caries is considered an oral health problem worldwide. In Chile the last national epidemiological study (2007) showed a national prevalence of dental caries in children 6 years (70.3%) and 12 (62.5%). Direct pulp capping is a preventive dental therapy, keeps the vitality of the tooth using some inductive materials mineralized tissue formation. Objective: The main objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of two innovative direct pulp capping materials; Biodentine compared MTA and calcium hydroxide in the maintenance of pulp vitality in teeth permanent molars.

This double blind, randomized, controlled clinical trial aimed to observe the success of stepwise (SW) and one step (OneS) excavation techniques in the management of deep dentin caries. Additionally, evaluation of glass ionomer cement (GIC) as temporary restorative was also performed. For this purpose, forty participants were selected among the routine patients coming to university clinic. A permanent tooth having caries lesions penetrating to 75 percentage or more of dentin of patient were included. Randomization to SW and OneS groups were organized by coin method. The periphery of the cavities including enamel-dentin junction was cleaned until reach to hard dentin. Afterwards, selective removal to soft dentin on the pulpal side of the cavities was applied manually excavation and covered with pure calcium hydroxide and zinc oxide eugenol cement. GIC was used for temporary filling. This process was implemented both the first stage excavation of SW and OneS groups. Clinical and radiographic evaluations were performed at 6 months according to clinical signs and symptoms and radiographic sings using Periapical Index (PAI). Besides, temporary restorations were evaluated according to the of Ryge/Modified USPHS criteria. Following this evaluation, on the SW group, the cavities was re-entered and selective removal was applied up to firm dentin and pulp-capping were applied as mentioned above. In OneS group, temporary restoration was reduced as a base. All of the cavities were permanently restored with resin composite. Whole procedure was completed at one centre by a specialist, and control sessions was performed two experienced experts. Participants and experts were blinded in this study.

platelet rich fibrin(PRF) obtained from patient from patient blood sample (before start of treatment)is injected in the site of exposure of exposure(intervention group) control group will receive normal pulp capping procedure by MTA follow up will be one year
