The evaluation of MTA and Biodentine as a pulpotomy materials for carious exposures in primary teeth.

Objective: This study examined the effects of MTA and Biodentine on the clinical and radiographic success rates of pulpotomies performed on primary teeth with carious pulp exposures.

Materials And Methods: This study was conducted with 44 mandibular primary molars requiring vital pulpotomy. Carious dentin surrounding the exposure site was used as the inclusion criteria for all teeth, which were randomly divided into two groups according to pulpotomy material [MTA group (n = 24), Biodentine group (n = 20)].

Carious Exposure versus Mechanical Exposure for MTA Pulpotomy in Primary Teeth.

. The etiology of exposure determines pulpal response, making it crucial to distinguish between mechanical and carious exposure. This study clinically and radiographically evaluated the success of MTA pulpotomies conducted to treat carious and mechanical pulp exposure.

Efficacy of platelet-rich plasma as a scaffold in regenerative endodontic treatment.

Introduction: Current research is concerned with discovering better scaffolds for use in regenerative endodontic treatment. This study aimed to clinically and radiographically evaluate the efficacy of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) used as a scaffold in regenerative endodontic treatment and compare it with that of a conventional blood clot (BC) scaffold.

Methods: A total of 20 necrotic, single-rooted immature teeth were randomly distributed into 2 groups.
