Comparison between the Radiographic and Clinical Rates of Success for TheraCal and MTA in Primary Tooth Pulpotomy within a 12-Month Follow-Up: A Split-Mouth Clinical Trial.

Background: The present study was conducted for contrasting the efficacy of TheraCal and MTA for primary molar pulpotomy.

Methods: During the current split-mouth randomized clinical trial, 90 bilateral primary molars from 45 healthy 5- to 8-year-old children were pulpotomized using TheraCal in one bilateral tooth and MTA in the other, randomly. Glass ionomer (GI) was used to cover these materials.
