Summary

Dental caries, highly prevalent amongst children, can cause pulpitis. Coronal pulpotomy provides an easier, cost-effective, conservative and biologically-driven treatment option compared to endodontic treatment in mature permanent teeth with irreversible pulpitis. The aim of the current study is to evaluate postoperative pain, clinical and radiographic outcomes of MTA pulpotomy compared to root canal treatment in children's first permanent molars suffering from irreversible pulpitis.

Detailed description

In this randomized controlled trial, patients aged 10-14 years suffering from irreversible pulpitis in the first permanent molar with closed apex will be randomly divided into two groups. The first group will receive complete coronal MTA pulpotomy, while the second group will receive endodontic treatment.
