| Abstract | ||||
| Objective: The objective of this study was to compare between the clinical and radiographic effects of three medicaments (Salvadora Persica "SP", Formocresol and Calcium hydroxide) on non-vital pulpotomy of primary and young permanent molars. Subjects and Methods: The present study was a randomized controlled study comprised of 24 children. These teeth were classified into two equal groups. The patients were with age from 4-8 years old. In (Group 1) the radicular pulp of the primary teeth was capped with formocresol in (subgroup 1A) and SP in (subgroup 1B) after pulpotomy procedures. In (Group 2) the radicular pulp of young permanenet molar was capped with calclium hydroxide in (subgroup 2A) and SP in (subgroup 2B) after pulpotomy procedures. The teeth were assessed clinically and radiographically after 3 months. Result: The present study revealed that, in (Group1) the clinical and radiographic success rate of salvadora persica was 83.3%, while the success rate of formocresol was 100% . In (Group2) SP showed no success as a pulpotomy medicament for vital pulpotomy of young permanenet molars. Conclusion: Based on the present finding, it may be concluded that, - Salvadora Persica proved good clinical and radiographic result as a pulp medicament for non-vital pulpotomy of primary molars. - Salvadora Persica showed no success as a pulpotomy medicament for vital pulpotomy of young permanenet molars. | ||||
