Comparison Of Clinical And Radiological Success Of Pulpotomy Treatments Performed With Proroot MTA, NeoPUTTY MTA, TheraCal PT In Primary Teeth
Comparison Of Clinical And Radiological Success Of Pulpotomy Treatments Performed With Proroot MTA, NeoPUTTY MTA, TheraCal PT In Primary Teeth
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to compare clinical and radiological success rates of NeoPutty MTA, ProRoot MTA and TheraCal PT pulpotomy in 4-10 years old healthy pediatric patients. The main question it aims to answer is:
Which of these 3 materials are best suited for pulpotomy treatment in the aspect of clinical and radiological success rates.
Participants will undergo a pulpotomy treatment in primary molar teeth with one of these materials used.
This study was conducted on primary molar patients who applied to Necmettin Erbakan University Faculty of Dentistry Department of Pedodontics for a routine check-up, did not have any systemic problems, had a score of 3 and 4 according to the Frankl Behavior Scale, and whose parents' approval could be obtained, and had a pulp-related and active caries appearance in the lower jaw. Patients between the ages of 4 and 10 who are indicated for dental pulpotomy treatment will be included.
In our prospective randomized clinical study;
Pulpotomy treatment; Infiltrative/mandibular anesthesia is applied to the primary lower molar teeth, which are in contact with the pulp and have not experienced spontaneous pain, and wait until numbness occurs. Under rubber dam isolation, soft caries in the lower primary molar tooth is removed with a steel round bur.
Removal of pulp tissue: Starting from where the pulp is exposed, 1-2 mm is removed with a water-cooled high-speed diamond round bur.
Bleeding Control: It is washed with sterile serum and the cavity is disinfected using a cotton pellet impregnated with 2.5% Sodium Hypochlorite. It is checked that there is no residual pulp tissue left. For hemostasis, a cotton pellet impregnated with physiological saline is placed in the cavity.
Control group (Pro Root MTA) Pro Root MTA consists of powder and liquid components. The liquid part is added to the powder, mixed and placed in 30 primary molars as pulpotomy material. Glass ionomer cement is placed on it as a base material and the treatment is completed by making a permanent restoration with a stainless steel crown.
Working group (NeoPUTTY MTA) NeoPUTTY MTA is in injector form and has a paste consistency. Taken using a hand tool It is placed in 30 primary molars as pulpotomy material. As a base material on it Glass ionomer cement is placed and the treatment is completed by making a permanent restoration with a stainless steel crown.
Study group (Theracal PT) Theracal PT is in the form of a resin-containing syringe and is applied directly to 30 primary molars as pulpotomy material and polymerized with the help of a radiation device. Glass ionomer cement is placed on it as a base material and the treatment is completed by making a permanent restoration with a stainless steel crown.
When the literature is examined within the scope of our research, there are a limited number of studies comparing Pro Root MTA with NeoPUTTY MTA and Theracal PT. In this thesis study, it was aimed to compare its success on the pulp with the materials in the study group by using Pro Root MTA, which has proven its success on the pulp in the literature, in the control group. After the treatment of the teeth is completed, participants will be called for 6th and 9th month checks. During the control sessions, clinical and radiological evaluations of the relevant teeth will be made and periapical radiographs will be taken, maximum one from each tooth.
