Abstract
|
|
|
Objectives: This study aimed to compare the postoperative pain and clinical performance after partial pulpotomy by using
ProRoot MTA and Endocem MTA.
Materials and Methods: Twenty-eight teeth requiring partial pulpotomy due to deep dental caries or traumatic injury were included in this study. After 2mm removal of exposed pulp and bleeding control, the ProRoot MTA or Endocem MTA was randomly adjusted to the exposed site. 1, 2, 4, and 12 weeks after the final restoration, the patients were recalled to check the postoperative pain or another unfavorable signs. Pearson’s chi-square test was used for statistical analysis to evaluate any differences among tested materials.
Results: 3 of 28 teeth showed postoperative pain and cold positive during followup period (10.7%). There were no statistically differences in pain occurrence between two tested materials (P > 0.05).
Conclusions: In the limitations of this study, partial pulpotomy by using Endocem MTA showed the advantages of short setting time and lower postoperative pain incidence, allowing one visit treatment.
