Clinical and Radiographic Evaluation of Biodentine Versus Formocresol in Vital Pulpotomy of Primary Molars: (A Randomized Control Clinical Trial)
Abstract
Aim of the study: To compare Formocresol and Biodentine clinically and radiographically when used for pulpotomy of primary molars Study Design : A randomized control clinical trial (split mouth and double blind) was conducted on 43 (4-6 years-old) children with decayed vital mandibular primary molars which were treated by pulpotomy using both medicaments . All treated teeth were followed for one year (at 3, 6, 9 and 12 months clinically and at 6 and 9 radiographically).
Conditions: Pulp Disease, Dental.
Primary outcome: Assessing survival rate regarding absence of spontaneous pain over time. using a questionnaire..
Enrollment: 43 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a randomized trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 2 of 5 (High · randomized trial). Randomized trials of a reasonable size are the strongest single-study design. Reported size: 43 participants or records.
