Abstract | ||||
This study was to evaluate clinical and radiographic effects of three medicaments (Calcium hydroxide, Biodentine and BAG) on the pulp tissue of young permanent teeth. Methodology: Pulpotomy procedure was performed in thirty young first permanent molars. After that, the radicular pulp is medicated either with biodentine, BAG or Ca (OH)2 and restored with Zn phosphate cement. After 48 Hours, 4 weeks, 3 months, patients were recalled and data were collected, tabulated, and statistically analyzed. Result: Clinical and radiographic assessments of the three groups revealed 90%, 60% and 80% success rates respectively, after 3 months follow up. Conclusion: Biodentine can be used successfully as a pulpotomy medicament in young permanent teeth. | ||||
