The Clinical and Radiographic Success of Primary Molar Pulpotomy Using Biodentine™ and Mineral Trioxide Aggregate: A 24-Month Randomized Clinical Trial. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

  • The study aimed to compare the effectiveness of Biodentine™ and mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) in performing pulpotomies on primary molars in children.
  • 32 children aged 4-9 had their primary molars treated with either Biodentine™ or MTA, with results assessed over 24 months using clinical and radiographic evaluations.
  • At the end of 24 months, both materials showed similar high success rates, with no significant differences found between them.

Article Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the clinical and radiographic success of Biodentine™ and mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) pulpotomy in primary molars.

Methods: Thirty-two four- to nine-year-olds were included in this study. The primary molars were randomly assigned to the Biodentine™ and MTA groups. After coronal pulp removal and hemostasis, the remaining pulp tissue was covered with Biodentine™ or MTA. All teeth were restored with stainless steel crowns. Clinical and radiographic successes and failures were recorded at six-, 12-, 18- and 24-month follow-ups. Data were statistically analyzed using Mann-Whitney U and Wilcoxon tests.

Results: The 24-month follow-up evaluations revealed that the clinical success rates were 96.8 percent (30 out of 31) for both Biodentine™ and MTA. The radiographic success rates at 24 months were 93.6 percent (29 out of 31) for Biodentine™ and 87.1 percent (27 out of 31) for MTA. No significant differences were found among the groups at all follow-up appointments (P>0.05) Conclusion: Biodentine™ and mineral trioxide aggregate did not differ significantly in combined clinical and radiographic success after 24 months.
