About

The present study aims to evaluate the clinical and radiographic success of bioceramics putty MTA versus MTA in the pulpotomy of immature permanent molars

The main question it aims to answer is:

Will the biocermaics putty MTA have higher clinical and radiographic success rates than MTA in pulpotomy of immature permanent molars?

Full description

limited clinical trials have reported the clinical and radiographic outcomes after pulpotomy with premixed putty bioceramic MTA and conventional MTA in young permanent molars.

MTA has various drawbacks, such as difficulty in handling, long setting time, discoloration of the tooth, and its form as a powder/liquid which raise the responsibility for major material waste. To conquer these issues, bioceramic materials have been developed premixed putty bioceramic MTA is a ready-to-use material for immediate placement with zero waste, saving cost and chair time. Thus, the present study aims to evaluate bioceramic putty MTA's clinical and radiographic success versus MTA in pulpotomy of immature permanent molars.
